I hate to be a pest, but I still can't find where Avidsnorkeler posted. Do you remember?

Narnia to quote Avidsnorkeler:

 

We found the prettiest snorkel beach a 10 or 15 minute picturesque walk from the tender. Facing the island (atoll) we turned right on their one road and walked for about ten or 15 minutes until we found this pretty little beach on our right. There are several little beaches and you could choose any one. Walking down the road we also saw a road bisecting ours, and tried that, and found the rough ocean at the end of it. So we back tracked back to the main road, and kept going. These beaches are inside the protected huge lagoon that the atoll surrounds. We could see the Paul Gauguin in the distance and got some nice pictures. My boyfriend even saw a stingray. There were also colorful big clams, and colorful fish and pretty coral heads. We really enjoyed this snorkel that we found on our own!

 

 

Hope this helps.

Noice there are no divers offered by the cruise in Taha'a. Does anyone know of a diver operator that we can book with while there? Made our reservations with Marc for Huahine for the picnic!

Island Gull remember we are not exactly in Tahaa but in Motu Mahana - the diving operator would have to come to motu mahana to get you. People swear by the coral garden snorkelling so you should consider that.

 

In my opinion ( non diver) the Motu Mahana day is a lovely one and you would be well served to enjoy it rather than take tours etc.
