If you want a unique, one-of-a kind experience with two beautiful and knowledgable hosts who know the exact right time to take you to the best experiences in Mo-orea, then Mermaid tours is for you. They know how to stay away from populated areas and their photography is amazing! We even saw a rare eagle ray and a beautiful conch shell. The experience is tailored to your needs. Luna's smile and joy lights up every moment of the tour. Highly recommended.
What a lovely couple and what an amazing adventure we had . We swam with turtles sharks and rays and saw so many beautiful corals and fish A wee moray eel a few crown of thorns starfish and clams as well It was extraordinary and Luna and Clem were wonderful hosts and clearly very passionate about sea life and their island Moorea This was the most interesting and well organised dive I have ever been on and the perfect way to spend a morning or afternoon
Best guided tour we have been on in years! Luna and Clem were friendly and great guides. I was apprehensive about snorkeling but Luna was very reassuring and made ut a wonderful experience. And the underwater pics were beautiful!
An adorable couple, attentive and caring, made sure we had a wonderful time ... the photos you took for us are simply stunning! Thank you very much ...
This was an amazing experience. I can’t recommend this company enough. Luna and Clem were wonderful. We did the 7 am private tour and had the black-tip shark and ray place to ourselves, as well as the coral gardens in a protected spot from big currents. We also saw sea turtles and many types of fish. I was nervous but it couldn’t have gone better. I wore a scopolamine patch and it worked great. Worth every penny and more!
This half-day boat tour was the absolute highlight of our trip to Moorea. My partner and I had an incredible experience from start to finish — cruising through the stunning lagoon and seeing rays and sharks up close in such a beautiful setting. The guides were amazing: super friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable and safe in the water at all times. They really made the experience special. Everything was smooth, well-organized, and exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this tour — it’s an unforgettable experience and completely worth it.
We had an amazing snorkeling trip with Luna and Clem. They knew all the best places to go and how to avoid crowds- they planned our day so we were in many spots by ourselves. We swam with rays, sharks, turtles and tons of fish. Luna was a great guide and captured so many fantastic photos of our family. Best snorkeling trip we have experienced. Definitely recommend and we would go again.
Ia Ora Na Colby, It was so great to meet you and your family, we are so delighted that you all enjoyed it! Thank you for your lovely words and until next time! Mauruuru Roa, Clem and Luna

Clem was a great captain taking us to idealic spots to snorkel they make a formidable team! This tour is a must do!! It was the best part of our trip 🙌🏻 Visited in February
Ia Ora Na Lindy, Thank you so much for this fantastic review, We are so happy that you came to discover the beautiful underwater world with us! Wishing you all the best! Mauruuru Roa, Clem and Luna
We went on an early morning private tour with mermaid private boat tours to visit the shark and stingray sandbank before the crowds got there. We got then to observe eagle rays and turtles in the water and ended with a coral garden exploration in between the two motus. Luna and Clem are fantastic and we had an amazing day. Don't hesitate this is the way to get out on the water!
Ia Ora Na Lisa, So good you guys came out with us early, best time of the day! Thank you for your awesome review :) Mauruuru Roa, Clem and Luna
Outstanding experience. Captain and guide were knowledgeable, enthusiastic, kind, and passionate about the animals. With rough surf and strong currents (storms had just passed through) they helped us still get the full experience. Turtles, sharks, rays, and amazing fish. 10/10
