The trip on the Aqua Tiki was exceptional. The staff was friendly and helpful in every way. I didn’t love the food but that did not take away from the experience. Get ready for walls of sharks!

Trip of a lifetime

Everything we hoped for and more. This is a great expedition with some exceptional diving. Lots and lots of sharks, napoleon wrasse, big schools of barracuda and Jack fish. The underwater topography adds to the experience with a mix of drift dives in the passes and reefs. The crew were excellent and the boat is very comfortable. Sailing between atolls in 25kts of wind was a real treat.

Shark Capital of The World

Diving the passes of Fakarava with the walls of sharks is an experience out of this world. In addition, meeting a great hammer head on the last dive, made the diving our beat experience ever.
