Located in the heart of the Fishermen’s Bay, the site presents itself as a vast disc, swept by the waves. The outer edge, steep, offers beautiful perspectives on the abyss; gorgonians and black coral find their place there.

The site owes its name to a freshwater spring emerging from the depths of the ocean. It gushes out at 5-6 meters below the surface and is easily visible due to the column of fresh water escaping from it. This is what is called a halocline. This site is well-known in Tahiti for turtle watching.

The descent takes place along a drop-off, marked from 25 meters by a coral projection at the end of which stands a magnificent peak with a diameter of 15 meters.

Beautiful opening in the reef. A lot of verticality when arriving at the St. Etienne Drop-off. The upper part of the drop-off is very lively, with plenty of fish and turtles. A magnificent dive, especially with good visibility.

A dizzying and sensational vertical wall. The reef barrier slopes gently down to 5 to 6 meters and plunges into a steep wall rich in fauna and flora…

Dive site located after the Sofitel hotel at PK15. A succession of canyons where large “coral mushrooms“ are found, serving as a refuge for whitetip sharks and Maori perch. During calm weather, there is the possibility to enjoy the magnificent “oho,“ a canyon near the coral reef.

Just a few minutes from the Taina marina, this site allows you to explore the bottom of the channel and the shallow area between the lagoon and the coral barrier. A favored habitat for stonefish, scorpionfish, and lionfish, the site also reveals delightful surprises during night dives.

Stunning drop-off interspersed with fissures and overhangs at the edge of a rich little pass. Probably one of the most beautiful sites in Paea. Not to be missed!

This site takes the form of a vast amphitheater created by the collapse of a portion of the underwater plateau. Divers have two exploration options, one at the southern end of the arena and the other at the northern point. The depth of the site ranges from 8 meters to 40 meters.

Certainly the best site for beginners in Tahiti. A coral ring which is ideal for a first dive. There are also 3 wrecks lying on the sand: a Cessna (5 m) and 2 boats.
