I did the lover's package with my husband and we were lucky enough to be guided by Nichola and Julien. The sights were absolutely amazing and although I was so scared to try it, I'm so grateful I did. I had some issues with learning the breathing apparatus as I mainly breath through my nose and was a little panicked, but Julien is so good at what he does. He made me feel calm and safe and let me go at my own pace while my husband was able to just explore with Nichola. Nichola was so fun and he got some amazing footage for us. I truly appreciate Julien and getting a video to commemorate such an awesome experience. My husband enjoyed it so much that he's even thinking about how to get scuba certified to be able to try more than just a beginner's package in the future. If you're questioning whether to try scuba diving book it with Julien and Nichola and you won't be disappointed.

My experience with Bora Ocean Adventures was absolutely incredible! As a brand new open water diver, I was both excited and nervous going into my first dives, but the team made me feel comfortable and confident from the very beginning. Our dive guide, Charles was patient, professional, and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. They took their time making sure I felt safe underwater and never rushed the experience. Once we got into the water, it was beyond anything I imagined — crystal clear water, beautiful coral, colorful fish, and unforgettable marine life. What stood out most was how supportive and encouraging everyone was throughout the entire experience. You can tell they genuinely care about helping new divers enjoy and succeed in diving. By the end of the trip, I felt so much more confident and completely hooked on diving! If you’re considering diving in Bora Bora, I highly recommend Bora Ocean Adventures. They turned what could have been an intimidating experience into one of the highlights of my life. Five stars all the way!

I booked directly with the tour operator and received a warm welcome and excellent advice. The tour itself took place in a relaxed atmosphere. My dive buddy was Ben, who took good care of me and handled everything in a calm yet professional manner. The dives were wonderful, and with everything else that went along with it, it was a perfect outing. Highly recommended. 👍🏼 Best regards Marcel

We had an amazing time diving with Nico and captain Remi!! We saw so many Manta Rays on our first dive, it was magical and a must do. Followed by a second dive filled with tons of fish, great visibility and black tip sharks. They made me feel super comfortable as well given I’m not the most experienced diver. Thank you Nico and Remi for a great day!

We came to Bora Bora for some days during our honeymoon and we arranged our baptism with Bora Ocean Adventures. As agreed, they picked us up at the Vaitape port, and after a short car ride, we arrived at their office, where we filled out the waiver and put on our wetsuits. After a quick boat trip to pick up another diver, we reached Anau, the dive site. Our instructor, Charles, who was very friendly, explained everything we needed to know about the equipment—how to use and wear it—and how to "communicate" underwater. The first two meters of the dive are the most challenging because you have to get used to the gear and the situation; we were a bit nervous at first, but Charles helped us with everything, allowing us to take our time and build confidence. From then on, everything went perfectly. Once we reached the bottom, we explored the seabed with its many corals and fish (unfortunately, no manta rays this time). After more than half an hour, we surfaced, and they offered us tea and biscuits on board. I should add that the boat is equipped with a freshwater shower for rinsing off, and they provide towels. At the end, they even gave us a certificate for our first dive. We would also like to thank the other instructor, Giulian, who piloted the boat and dove with the other diver.
