Swimming with Whales in Moorea (Half Day tour)

9.Swimming with Whales in Moorea (Half Day tour)

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 264 reviews · from $305

Join Moorea Expedition for a four-hour ocean trip limited to six swimmers per boat under 2025 rules. From July through late November, the crew searches for humpback whales, with possible encounters with dolphins, stingrays, sharks, and turtles. Strong open-water swimming and snorkeling skills are required. Guides including Johnny, Joe, and Laura have led memorable outings.

“This was an amazing experience from pick up to drop off. Taxi was on time at resort and super pleasant. Johnny and his captain were tremendous, safety was a priority for the whales and participants. He explained everything wonderfully and offered in both French and English. We were able to make two entries into the water the first with a mom and two calves and the second the same, except from the boat you could see there were two pods meeting up. The captain and Johnny navigating to the second entry point was amazing to watch — how they understood the ocean, whales and movements. We didn’t focus on taking…”

Moorea: Half-Day Open-Air 4WD Safari with Hotel Transfers

10.Half-Day Open-Air 4WD Safari with Hotel Transfers

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 240 reviews · 3h 30m · from $70

Ride Moorea’s rugged interior in an open-air 4WD with a French or English-speaking guide such as Carlos or Gérard. You’ll see Belvedere Lookout, Cook’s and Opunohu Bays, pineapple country, marae, freshwater eels, local jams, juices, and fruit liqueurs. Hotel and ferry-terminal pickup make this a useful half-day introduction to the island.

“We visited several islands in FP and picked a different type of activity on each. So we chose the island safari on Moorea and truly think it was the best island for that. Views were spectacular and we got to see areas we would not have visited on our own (even if we had rented a car). Our tour guide was super fun, shared lots of information and history. We were also lucky with our fellow passengers who made the day more memorable. Plan on booking in advance (at least 2 days ahead should be good as tours fill up quickly). Albert Tours was helpful and well organised.”

“My husband really liked swimming with the whales, an experience of a lifetime. However I decided to stay on the boat after we experienced the "test" swim. Which i was not planning on doing and it was disappointing. I did pay for the experience!! The swim out to reach the whales was a long, hard swim in the open sea. Which we were tested on to see if we could quickly swim the length of a football field in the bay before we went out to sea. I only have one hard swim in me and was sad to waste it on a "test". That is after our guide gave…”
