Port d'Anaa Tours

Excellent access to some of the best diving in the world. Located right on the water and Tumakahoa pass, this location is right on shark alley and some of the most beautiful coral I’ve seen. The property is rustic but over the water and right on the reef. It is a lot like camping. Cold showers, no locking doors, damp bedding when it rains and few amenities are all part of the experience. The boat ride from Fakarava north is a little more than an hour and can really only be done in the daytime. Our flight was delayed so we had to stay in Fakarava north, which was fully booked and ended up paying for tetamanu and the pension on the north side. The staff is friendly but don’t go out if their way in hospitality. We had to ask for basics like toilet paper and they couldn’t accomodate any dietary requests or snacks when it wasn’t time for a scheduled meal. You eat what they serve, which is pancakes and fish for the most part. It was all delicious though. The dive guides were very nice and showed us some of the most incredible diving I have experienced. For me it was a special experience, but not appropriate for people that need extra care or a honeymoon type of experience like on Moorea or bora bora.
