Sharks & Manta Rays

Close to Moorea Island, we snorkelled amongst Reef sharks (up to 6’ long) & manta rays, which were at least that length, including their tails. This was a fantastic experience, as we saw many of these in very shallow, clear water! We also snorkelled over some ancient Tiki statues that were in 3-4 metres of water. In the afternoon, while some of our shipmates went on a Moorea Is. tour, we decided to walk towards a village, as the captain moored the boat on a large dock. It was very warm and we made it to within 3 kms of the nearest village. After an hour, we decided to turn around. We did see some black pearl, vegetable & fruit & clothing stalls along the route. We got our 10000 steps in this afternoon. After dinner, we set off on an overnight motor. We travelled 142 kms in 11 hours. It was very hot overnight without AC & some guests decided to sleep on deck on both levels.Читать далее
