Remarkable trip/dive safari.
They know the currents and are very experienced. I have a large camera setup so they advised me of the current situation prior to each dive. One area near unesco site had thousands of fish and was the most remarkable site. We saw plenty of mantas in relatively clear water for nice photographs. Chef was very good lots of tuna sashimi and tartare, yoghurt, fresh fruits, fresh bread, eggs for breakfast. Diving from the zodiac was easy.

- The diving was remote and remarkably beautiful. There’s some good currents so this is for an experienced diver. Lots of beautiful fish. Several species of butterfly fish seen everywhere in large groups. Many many sharks as. Small group. 4 guests and 3 crew.

Great trip with technical dives
I’ve had a great time on this liveaboard. The dives, although quite technical, were fantastic but I also really enjoyed the extra activities we got to do between the dives. The crew were great. Tika, our hostess, was great with meals(even special last minute requests) and fun chats in between. Greg, the captain, done everything humanly possible to ensure we’ve had a good time. Nothing was too much. The highlight of the trip for me was Marie, our dive instructor. She is one of the very best (if not THE best) dive guides I’ve had a privilege to dive with, sharing her immense technical knowledge with us during dive briefings. I’ve left the trip with new diving skills and improved confidence.

The best way to explore the dive sites in French Polynesia
Perfect visibility, enjoyable drift dives, different sizes of tank to accommodate diver’s need, well managed one hour dive, optional nitrox available for decompression stop to ensure safety and comfort. Personally, cataraman is my favorite as it avoids the smell from gasoline. Many free time available for snorkeling around and there’re lots to see. Additional credit given to the beautiful Milky Way at night!

Excellent diving & a fantastic crew
We had a great time on Aqua Tiki II. We have been on 10+ liveaboards around the world ... Captain Greg was by far the best captain we've had ... he is the absolute backbone of the Aqua Tiki experience. The rest of the crew (Tika, Leah, Jeremy & Guillaume) were all fantastic too. The diving was excellent (constant sharks, lots of manta encounters, great drifts) and all well planned and very safe. Food was plentiful and good. Greg took us on some nice little side trips to different motus. We were lucky with the weather (very calm) but the trips between atolls can be rough - take sea sickness tablets. Things to note ... There is no Nitrox - it is all Air diving. There is no AC, but we found the fan and open hatches sufficiently cool. Being a catamaran, the rooms are tiny and the beds are not the comfiest, all rooms are ensuite though, with good showers. Bring ear plugs the electric toilets / waterpump can be noisy if used in the night! We really enjoyed our trip and would definitely recommend this liveaboard. Just be aware that, if you are used to some of the very luxurious liveaboards in the Maldives and South-East Asia, this is a different type of liveaboard - it's lots of fun, fab diving, great service but it's a much smaller boat. But we would definitely come again.

excellent food, friendly staff and diving in pristine areas
i had an amazing time on Aqua Tikki 2. Octavie our cook made delicious food all the time and not repetitive. Jeremi our Divemaster found the best scuba diving spots. we saw the famous "shark wall", many Mantas and very abundent marine life in general. Greg, our Captain and RIB driver sailed us safely all over the tuamotu. also land trips were done which made for me a difference than a only diving liveaboard. 2 dives a day, but more then enough to feel the thrill. i would highly recommend AQUA tiki 2 and the crew. many thanks again

Superb!
It was fantastic! Fakarava is beautiful and secluded. No other boats anywhere on outer atolls. Humidity was low in June, temperature was pleasant, water was flat, just amazing!
