Sharks are seen all year but are less common during the breeding season between September and October.

We have the chance to observe green and hawksbill turtles all year round.

The whale season generally begins in mid-July and ends in early November. Their arrival varies from one year to another within 1 or 2 weeks. The whales are observed 2 to 3 times a year during dives. The best way to see them is with fins, mask and snorkel. Be careful, we go into the wateronly if the behavior of the whales allows it (95% chance on the day). Nature decides. The observations in natural environment are not contractual.

What are the advantages of taking a private boat?

Choosing the option of a private boat allows you to explore the sites of your choice accompanied by a certified instructor and a captain to ensure drift dives. If you take it for a day, there is the possibility to go around the island, have lunch in the middle of a deserted lagoon, and enjoy the expedition by snorkeling with turtles, eagle rays and sharks...

FAQ snorkeling

What level do I need to participate in the animal expeditions with fins, mask and snorkel?

Even if you have never put on fins, mask and snorkel, you will be initiated in complete safety. Rays and sharks are only in 1 meter deep of water!
More advanced snorkelings can be offered to the more advanced snorkelers, such as drifting in the passes.

What is drift snorkeling?

Accompanied by a guide when the weather conditions allow it, we offer to go into the water and let yourself be carried by the current. In a passe, you will discover its existing fauna and topography.

Which emblematic species can be observed?

It is 99% guaranteed to see green sea turtle, stingray, and blacktip reef shark.
• Spotted eagle rays are 80% likely to be seen.
For dolphins, it depends on the species. For the long-beaked common dolphins found in the passes and lagoon, it is 80% of the trips of the ½ day. It is very rare to go into the water with them. For the rough-toothed dolphins that are offshore, it depends a lot on the state of the sea, the calmer it is, the more chances we have to observe them. On the other hand, if we find them, we can frequently join them in the water.
Humpback whales are the main attraction every year between mid-July and early November. Our expeditions are dedicated to their encounter and we observe the mat 95%. Beware, we go into the water if the whales’ behavior allows it (90% chance on the day), nature decides. Therefore, observations with fins, mask, ans snorkel are not contractual.
The observation of other species of cetaceans, sharks, rays, pelagic fishes remain a matter of luck.
