The dive sites
The choice of dive sites is made the same morning, depending on the weather conditions.
If you have a preference, you will have to speak to the instructor when you arrive at the center.
Since the feeding ban in 2018, there are no more shark sites on Moorea. We meet them everywhere and less frequently. On the other hand, there are more and more turtles, we see them almost every time.
