Aquatiki III
Liveaboard
Diving experience
The comfortable Aqua Tiki III with its 20 meters length and 9.8 meters width has a total of 5 spacious, different guest cabins and was specially designed and built for diving.
Unlike what you would expect from a catamaran, the Aqua Tiki III offers almost the comfort of a hotel and has a spacious, very cozy lounge area with video corner, library & cocktail bar.
The boat is looked after by a professional crew of 3 or 4 people.
Sailing usually takes place very early in the morning, in the lagoons or on the open sea. Deep-sea fishing is also possible in good sailing conditions.
As there is no sailing every day, the Aqua Tiki III gives you the opportunity to go on excursions to discover and enjoy the paradisiacal beaches of French Polynesia in addition to the dives.
Attention: Please note that the Aquatiki III can only be booked as a full charter for groups.
