The Team take water...
The Team take water safety very seriously which made us feel cared for and safe the entire time in the lagoon. Water conditions were not too ideal, but we managed to see a few turtles. The guys were respectful, funny and 100% focused on the job. Highly recommend using Snorkel Cook Islands.

Amazing experience
This was such an amazing experience. All of the employees were incredible and had a wealth of knowledge. I particularly chose this company for the all abilities, and I can absolutely vouch that they do cater. I also like that they don't use machinery (boats, underwater scooter things) to get you out there. This then means its not disrupting the fishes and turtles. We saw so many turtles and fishes. Highly recommend and would do again.

Amazing experience well worth doing
This was such a fun and amazing experience. The groups with Moana are small and they make sure you are safe and feel that way too. The amazing photos that are taken are downloaded to your phone straight after you return to the beach while you are sharing a tropical fruit platter. Would so recommend using Moana with the great staff and sea scooters to use - makes it more enjoyable and safer (than unaided swimming).

Excellent customer service
Mother nature didnt allow our trip to go ahead, however Angel and the team were amazing in trying to find us a range of alternate bookings. Unfortunately the options clashed with other plans and the only option logistically became to difficult as it was on the day of our departure and we didnt want to be stressed or rushed with our tour as the timings were tight. Angel realised this and processed our refund. Looks like we will have to come back another time 😁 Great customer service and a focus on safety first is awesome at Moana Sea-Scooters

We LOVEDDDD this experience!!!!Suh a great way of seeing iconic Raro bars in one night. Ally was our guide and she was AMAZING!!!! Her service was exceptional, she definitely deserves a raise. We were well looked after and well fed/hydrated. You get so much from what you pay. Our highlight was definitely Rehab. Fair to say we entered the bus as strangers and left singing our hearts out. Even begged to go for another round of the island because we didn’t want the night to end. 10/10 activity!!!

Ariki Adventures: Premium Sea Scooter Turtle Adventure

Wonderful experience with turtles & rays
The Ariki scooter adventure with sea scooters was wonderful! Despite it being cool & windy weather with a very strong current late in the afternoon we felt well looked after and safe. The group was 7 people in total but there were 5 Ariki staff to assist including the guide, the photographer, the boat driver & 2 safety people. We were treated to seeing lots of turtles up close and many eagle rays down below us. There were many colourful fish cruising around the coral as well as bright blue starfish! The sea scooters were amazing and certainly we would not have appreciated the beauty and the sea life as much without these to “zoom” around with! We borrowed wet suits and that was probably the only “down part” as they needed more and of better quality as they were not well fitting. Especially with the condition of the weather. Overall it was an excellent finale to our 12 days in the Cook Islands! Thank you for downloading all the photos to our phones as a memory of our Ariki Adventure!
