The description mentioned three snorkeling stops without making any further promises. We got the full Bora Bora itinerary: the Coral Garden, blacktip sharks, stingrays, eagle rays, manta rays (!). WHAM! The full itinerary, in fact. We also looked for dolphins, but if there aren't any in the bay, there aren't any in the bay. As a group of nine, it was a relaxed snorkeling experience; drinks, good cheer, and explanations of Bora Bora were well taken care of. We'll definitely keep the phone…”
