The Raie Manta Club is located on Rangiroa atoll, less than an hour's flight from Tahiti. The Raie Manta Club, located on the Tiputa pass side, is open all year round. Every day, the departure for an exploration dive takes place around 8 am and the rehabilitation dives are organized around 10 am. The second exploration dive takes place from 1.30 pm. If you wish to do a sunset or twilight dive, this takes place in the late afternoon at around 5 pm, upon request.
Transfers by 4x4 are free of charge from your guesthouse. The bilingual instructors, state-certified and sea guides, will prepare your equipment and then, after their briefing, they will guide you to discover this exceptional fauna. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced diver, you will dive in small groups of the same level on the reef or in the drift, in the passes, in an ongoing current. Customized safaris are organized on request for photographers and for film shoots.
Manta rays, more numerous from July to November, are present all year round. The great hammerhead shark "Tamataroa" is attracted to the leopard ray aggregations from December to February. Tursiops bottlenose dolphins are very playful and are present all year round. Seven different species of sharks can be seen in all seasons, both outside the atoll and inside the passes and lagoon. Whether the trade winds or the maramu blow, Rangiroa offers great diving opportunities all year round.
Rangiroa is the largest atoll in the South Pacific and one of the largest in the world. It is 76 km long and 24 km wide. Made up of a 300-meter wide coral strip, it surrounds the lagoon with its turquoise waters, rich in wildlife. To the north, separated by the two passes of the atoll, the villages of Avatoru and Tiputa are about 12 km apart.
