French Polynesia is much more than just a dream destination: it is a vast marine sanctuary, one of the richest and best preserved on the planet. With its turquoise lagoons, spectacular passes, and deep ocean, it offers divers an unparalleled diversity of experiences.

Unforgettable encounters await you: playful dolphins, peaceful turtles, elegant manta rays, schools of sparkling trevally, not to mention the twenty or so species of sharks that inhabit these waters, from blacktip sharks to impressive lemon sharks. Classified as a sanctuary for marine mammals since 2002, Polynesia is also home to whales, leopard rays, and sometimes even rare species such as the great hammerhead shark and marlin.

Here, each archipelago tells a different story:

• Tahiti & Moorea:
  beginner-friendly dives, colorful lagoons, and easy access to underwater exploration.
• Leeward Islands ( Bora Bora, Raiatea & Taha'a, Huahine, Maupiti): legendary lagoons, shipwrecks, coral gardens, and iconic encounters with rays and sharks.
• Tuamotu ( Rangiroa, Fakarava, Tikehau): adrenaline-filled dives and spectacular drift experiences in the passes, home to some of the world’s largest shark concentrations.
• Marquesas Islands (Nuku Hiva): wild and exclusive dives far from lagoons, in the heart of a deep and mysterious ocean.
