Summary: Captain Matt took amazing care of us, ensuring everyone’s safety while giving us the best opportunity to experience Bora Bora’s incredible marine life. We were lucky enough to see a group of about 25 eagle rays, several stingrays, three majestic manta rays within just a few meters of us, and countless fish in the coral gardens. Highly recommend - a small, intimate group and the added bonus of being picked up by boat right from our accommodation.
