The staff at Eleuthera Tahiti Diving center were all amazing. This was my first ever scuba lesson and my instructor was very professional and explained everything in detail and, most of all, made my experience so awesome! I highly recommend this for anyone who might be interested in learning to scuba.

We had such a great time diving with our guides Leia and Gilles(sp?)! We are a family of four with two older teens and not one of us had ever dived before (we're from Alaska)- both guides were incredibly kind and patient and made sure we had a blast and helped us through any hesitation with compassion and optimism. This is one of the peak memories of our vacation! I only wish we had had an underwater camera.

Our instructor was very friendly and knowledgeable and made sure that we were extremely comfortable under the water. We saw many different fish as well as the manmade reef made from a sunken wreck and plane.

I decided to book my initiation dive near the end of my stay in Tahiti. Eleuthera was able to accommodate. Jean is an incredible instructor! He (literally) held my hand throughout my dive. He allowed me to feel comfortable in the water and went at my own pace. He was nice enough to take pictures as well! I highly recommend!

Amazing guides who are very patient. Made us relax and hand held all the way being first timers. Highly recommend them for diving in French Polynesia.

We did our five "baptème" with Eleuthera and it was a really good experience. We had a wonderful instructor who spoke perfect English. She was responsible for only the two of us, which made me feel very safe throughout. She explained everything and was very attentive.
For the initiation you go to a spot called the Blue Hole. This is a spot where the water is deeper than in the rest of the lagoon and where there's no current (perfect for beginners). This spot not only features a ship wreck and an old airplane (I think a chessna) but also abundant wildlife. We saw a great variety of tropical fish, including clown fish, butterfly fish, parrot fish, trigger fish.
I highly recommend this place for initiation.

Did my first dive "bapteme" with the Elwuthera team, they took us out to the lagoon, it was great.
My 10 year old loved it too

Baptême de plongée juste parfait !!! Encadrement, accompagnement des moniteurs exceptionnelles, beaucoup d’explications, on avance à son rythme. Lieu de plongée sublime épaves bateaux et avion avec une multitude de poissons tropicaux, on a qu’une envie y retourner !

J’ai passé un super moment lors de mon tout premier baptême de plongée.
Un membre du club est venu me chercher gratuitement à mon hôtel et m’y a re déposée à la fin de ma session.
L’emplacement de plongée est incroyable, à proximité d’une ancienne épave d’avion et de bateau.
J’étais assez nerveuse avant de commencer et mon moniteur a été très patient, a l’écoute et a tout fait pour que je passe le meilleur moment possible.
En plus, j’étais seule avec le moniteur, ce qui m’a permis d’être guidée au mieux et d’avoir le meilleur accompagnement possible.
Je ne peux que recommander ce club !

J'ai adoré mon baptème de plongée!
Mael, l'instructeur a su me mettre en confiance dès le début avec son professionnalisme et son mood relax, ayant déjà eu une expérience en Australie où j'avais paniqué sous l'eau, j'hésitais à replonger, je suis extrêmement contente d'avoir vaincue ma peur car j'ai non seulement apprécié ma plongée mais j'ai aussi pu contempler un des plus beaux spots de plongée avec des dizaines de tortues (la Source).
Merci Mael! Superbe expérience que je vais reproduire c'est certain!
