Program and Itinerary

Meet at the Departure Point

On the day of your private kayak tour in Raiatea, you will need to make your way to the meeting point on the east coast. A rental car or taxi is recommended, as the distances are too great to cover on foot. Upon arrival, your guides will give you a warm welcome and introduce you to the route, the equipment, and the safety instructions.

Discover the East Coast of Raiatea

The excursion begins facing the Levant with a captivating and mysterious natural landscape. The island’s unique terrain appears covered in lush tropical vegetation, and you will experience this spectacle from your kayak on the delightful waters of the lagoon. Accompanied by your guide, you will paddle calmly at your own pace. Although somewhat athletic and invigorating, the exercise is also contemplative!

Qualified and Knowledgeable Guides

You will enjoy this adventure in the company of guides who are specially trained for this type of outing. As champion paddlers, they are accomplished athletes who will adapt the pace to suit your abilities. Your guides will take the time to listen to you and answer your questions in a friendly and relaxed manner. Ideal for experienced athletes, couples who are beginners, and families with children!

Snack on a Paradise Motu

The first two hours will fly by. Along the way, your guide will share lots of information and anecdotes about this special environment and its unique ecosystem. Then it’s time for a well-deserved break on a paradise motu. A light snack will be provided to give you a boost of energy before you set off on your next adventure: snorkeling to discover the aquatic fauna.

Snorkeling in the Coral Garden

Put on your mask and snorkel and dive into the water for a colorful, dynamic spectacle! You’ll see coral potatoes and myriads of multicolored fish darting around. Sometimes, blacktip reef sharks or turtles join the scene for your viewing pleasure. This experience is completely safe with your professional guide, who is an expert on the Raiatea lagoon and its wildlife.

Return to the Base

After a 3.5-hour excursion, it’s time to return to base. Your private kayak tour in Raiatea has come to an end. You’ll take home wonderful memories and the feeling of having discovered some magnificent places in complete privacy!
