A must-do activity when visit Rarotonga begins with a trip on one of the island’s most iconic experiences – Captain Tama’s Lagoon Cruizes (or Koka Lagoon) 🚤. Operating from the beautiful Muri Lagoon, this legendary tour combines vibrant entertainment, glass-bottom boat cruising, tropical snorkeling, and an authentic island-style BBQ feast.

The cruise stops at a sheltered marine reserve where guests can snorkel amongst colorful fish and vibrant coral 🌺🐠. After exploring the underwater world, the boat heads to a nearby motu (island) for a delicious BBQ lunch, coconut husking show, and some hilarious local entertainment, complete with ukulele tunes and high energy good vibes🎶

🌟 Tip: Bring a rash shirt or use reef-friendly sunscreen to protect both your skin and the delicate marine environment.​

🔎 Handy Advice: It's best to book in advance, especially during peak seasons. All snorkeling gear is provided, but don't forget your towel and camera to capture the memories!​

• "The captains were excellent and made us feel welcome, safe, relaxed and laugh all day. Snorkeling in the lagoon was incredible. Got to see a huge turtle, big trevally and loads of beautiful tropical fish. The captains sure know how to entertain. We loved their singing, drumming and ukulele playing, sarong and coconut demo, BBQ lunch and banter. Definitely made our day. Highly recommend Tamas cruise, it’s a 10 out of 10, 5 massive stars!" – ​captaintamas.com

Highly recommend spending a day with these guys. How do you beat epic music - snorkeling - a mean feed - comedy - and sea turtles!!!!" – ​captaintamas.com
