Makatea is the only uplifted atol in the Tuamotu. Despite the now abandoned phosphates activity, this atol remains a paradise – climbing, caving, coconut crab hunting and some magnificent diving – it’s all here and just an overnight sail from Tahiti. On the return trip we’ll stop in Tetiaroa, a classic atol in pristine condition, where you can see nesting sterns, explore the lagoon and practice watersports.

Your Itinerary

Day 1

Arrive on your boat …. choose to relax or have us arrange scuba diving or some holopuni sailing for you! Leave late afternoon for the sail to Makatea.

Makatea is a ‘rising atol’ meaning that it’s cliffs grow slightly higher each year.

Arrive in Makatea mid morning and get your first taste of snorkelling along a deep blue reef. Arrange to go coconut crab hunting in the evening if there’s not too much moonlight or simply enjoy a sundowner and meal on your boat.
