Wilfred was a great host. The fish feeding was really cool. Tons of colorful fish. Oh yeah, there were several black tip reef sharks and big rays involved as well! Would strongly recommend this activity! More

This was an experience we will never forget! We got to see and feed the fish, stingray and sharks. We saw tons of ocean creatures. So beautiful. The one thing I will suggest is to take food , water and snacks with you. They have a very limited little snack hut there. Don't miss this adventure!!! More

Our first experience was in April 2010, and we fell in love with the experience of these "underwater gardens". Snorkeling in Hawai'i is ok, but this is simply "outta sight"! The owners during our first visit were a brother and sister from the island of Tahiti. They were going out of their way to make it an unforgettable experience. The... More

We visited the lagoonarium after seeing it highly rated on tripadvisor, and were not disappointed. We got great photos of loads of different kinds of fish, a couple of moray eels and reef sharks and stingrays. If you go to the lagoonarium the 2pm fish feeding is not to be missed: while this is an open part of the reef... More

The signs on the side of the road do not give you the idea that this is anything special. There's a shack there where you pay. Then you are transported in a boat to the island. There are huts available for every 2-4 people for some private space and relaxing. The island is decorated in island decor. They feed fish... More

We thought about going here based on the great reviews, but last minute thought maybe we should do a more formal lagoon tour. We ended up sticking with our instinct and took a taxi out to the Lagoonarium and we were not disappointed a bit! I still can't believe I was so comfortable swimming with the rays and the black...

This is a great place to snorkel in Mo'orea. We arrived aroung 10 AM, grabbed a lunch from the small market about a mile away (to bring with us) and headed out to the rock. I say rock because it isn't a motu, in fact the motu you see from the island is private, but 15 feet off the motu... More

People working there were so nice. Take a water taxi to small island. Very local place, small Mom and Pop, nothing fancy. As you arrive, you receive a private bungalow for the day, can sleep there, put stuff there, etc. Small kitchen with tea, coffee, etc (no food here). Pretty much let you have lay of the land. Have some... More

We read the reviews on this and looked for it when we got there. Rented a car to get to it. The woman in the shack at the street does not speak good english but she will call for the guy out on the island to come get you. She really couldn't give me a price but it came to... More
