      Tahiti is one of the world's premier diving destinations, and with good reason. The French Polynesian islands' geography and climate meld to create a variety of diving experiences, ranging from shallow, warm lagoons perfect for novice divers to swift-moving pass dives that can challenge even experienced divers. Keep your eyes open for gray sharks, hammerheads, manta rays and dolphins as you explore miles of thriving coral reefs. One of the best ways to experience Tahiti's oceans is through a diving vacation.
