About this experience
Exploring the marine life with a sea-scooter is by far the most fun, unique and safest way to swim with the turtles. At Moana Sea Scooters, we know time is of the essence so instead of wasting time 'swimming' to the turtles, the sea-scooters offer you a quicker way to reach them.
What sets Moana Sea Scooters apart is our commitment to providing an exclusive and personal adventure with the use of Fun Sea-scooters. We're locally owned and operated, ensuring that you receive an authentic island experience. To maintain an intimate atmosphere, we limit each tour to 4-6 people. This means you get to savour the moment, soak in the beauty of the sea, and create lasting memories without the crowds.
Moana Sea Scooters is not just a tour; it's an opportunity to connect with nature, immerse yourself in a world of marine wonders, and make memories that will leave you yearning for more. Dive in with us today and experience the ocean like never before. Your adventure of a lifetime awaits!
