Aquatiki II
Liveaboard
Diving experience
The Aqua Tiki II, measuring 18 meters long and 8.5 meters wide, was built in 2011. It has a total of 4 spacious guest cabins and was specifically designed and built for diving.
The catamaran offers all the comforts of a hotel, featuring an indoor lounge, a cocktail bar, a dining area, and a library, plus a large covered outdoor lounge with a dining area & grill.
The boat is looked after by a professional crew of 3.
Sailing usually happens early in the morning, either in the lagoons or out on the open sea. If the sailing conditions are good, deep-sea fishing is also an option.
Since sailing doesn't happen every day, the Aqua Tiki III gives you the chance to go on excursions in addition to your dives, so you can discover and enjoy the paradise beaches of French Polynesia.

The Tuamotu Archipelago and safaris around Fakarava offer top-notch diving experiences that are among the most beautiful in the world and will definitely impress even the most experienced divers.
Dives usually happen in channels and are mostly drift dives, which means currents can be pretty strong.
You can typically do 2 dives a day, depending on the weather and currents (but no diving on arrival or departure days).
Water temperatures range from 25°C in winter (September) to 29°C in summer (March), and there's no thermocline.
The visibility in the crystal-clear water is always amazing and truly one-of-a-kind!
Night dives aren't usually planned (please check again once you're there).
