This was a fantastic experience!!! The boat trip across the atoll is a bit long but completely worth it! It was an absolutely surreal scene to see the reef formation and uplift. The drift snorkel was the best we experienced on our trip. The lunch on the beach was just perfect. What a picture-perfect spot.

???? Incredible day at Reef Island with Marius and the Captain ????
To be honest, at first I wasn’t very motivated to go to Île aux Récifs, because it’s DE other side of the lagoon and it takes 45 minutes DE boat. But it's definitely worth it!
✨ On site, the setting is beautiful, with a superb visit to the reef and drone photos that will remain a great memory.
???? We were lucky DE see about 15 sharks just DE the place where we ate.
????️ The meal was very very good, simple and delicious, perfect in this amazing setting.
???? To top it off, we even saw dolphins EN late DE the day.
In short, day at the top, thanks to Marius and the captain, we recommend without hesitation!
