This dive site, Plateau de Vaiare, is characterized by a stunning coral garden interwoven with several sandy veins, providing a diverse underwater landscape for navigation. This plateau gracefully transitions into a beautiful and extensive drop-off, offering dramatic vertical exploration. While there's no specific historical account, its reputation as 'the place of all encounters' in Moorea highlights its consistent marine activity. Divers can expect vibrant schools of jackfish and barracudas, alongside various shark species including white-tip, black-tip, and grey sharks. The plateau is also a known habitat for numerous turtles, making encounters with these gentle creatures a common occurrence. The coral garden itself teems with diverse marine life, supporting a rich ecosystem of smaller reef fish and invertebrates. Moorea generally offers excellent diving conditions year-round, with consistently warm waters and great visibility. The dry season (May to October) often provides the most stable weather. Both divers and freedivers will appreciate the blend of vibrant reef life and exciting pelagic encounters. It is advisable to be aware of moderate currents, which often bring in the larger marine life, enhancing the experience.
