Excursion Lagoon cruise & beach break tour at Aitutaki
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Aitutaki’s deep blue lagoon is considered one of the most beautiful lagoons in the world. A short cruise carries guests across the lagoon to pristine sandbars, where it is possible to stand in shallow, crystal-clear water and hand-feed schools of colorful tropical fish. This first snorkeling stop also offers the opportunity to observe impressive giant clams up close.
Leaving the sandbar, the cruise continues to One-Foot Island, where light refreshments are served. Time is available to wander along the island’s white-sand beaches and explore nearby motus (islets), home to nesting tavake (red-tailed tropical birds).
