Huahine Nautique: Outrigger Canoe Lagoon Circumnavigation

Glide around Huahine's legendary turquoise lagoon aboard a motorized outrigger canoe with Huahine's premier on-water operator. Snorkel pristine coral gardens, visit a motu islet, and experience the lagoon the way Polynesians have for centuries.

What to expect

You'll board a sleek outrigger from Fare's waterfront and set off across water so clear it appears backlit — shades of aquamarine and cobalt stacked over white sand. The captain navigates to thriving coral bommies for a snorkel among parrotfish, moorish idols, and if you're lucky, a leopard ray gliding beneath you. A stop on a palm-fringed motu (islet) offers the barefoot-in-paradise moment Huahine is famous for. The return leg skirts the reef pass, where the open ocean surges meet the calm lagoon in a breathtaking collision of colour.

Good to know

Private charter is strongly recommended for luxury travellers — book directly via their Facebook page or phone (+689 87 72 07 35) as the website can lag in updates. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and a dry bag. Confirm all-aboard time with captain; typical tours run 3–4 hours.
