Why Diving Tiputa Pass should be on your dive bucket list

Tiputa Pass is one of the top dive sites of French Polynesia. As a Mecca for divers, French Polynesia has everything a diver could possibly want, spread through more than one hundred beautiful volcanic islands and atolls scattered across the South Pacific. Known for their coral-fringed lagoons and over-the-water bungalow hotels, the islands’ feature white- and black-sand beaches, mountains, rugged backcountry, and towering waterfalls.

Sharks and Dolphines

At some stage in their diving career, every diver will want to dive with different kinds of sharks, dolphins, manta rays, turtles, or eagle rays. Tiputa Pass is the perfect place for that. You will encounter all this and more on coral gardens filled with tons of tropical fish, tuna, napoleon wrasse, and schooling barracuda. The warm water temperature and excellent visibility make your dives relaxing and comfortable. When diving Tiputa Pass, stay alert as you enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Do not forget to look into the deep blue from time to time, or toward the surface, as you may encounter some melon-headed dolphins. This friendly species won’t hesitate to approach divers, and may even perform a few pirouettes for you.
