Destination: Tuamotu Island, in the dense universe of the seabed of Tikehau

Manta Ray Diving Tikehau welcomes you for exceptional dives

Located in the "Pension Justine," a pioneer in its field on the atoll, the dive center is ideally located on the beach, offering you an idyllic setting for your dives, with direct access to the pontoon and a view of the manta ray spot.

Imbued with a Polynesian atmosphere, our center is designed to reflect the charms of the Tuamotu.

The history of the diving center

The center has existed since 1993, created by Yves Lefebvre, following the creation of the Manta Ray Club Rangiroa in 1985.

A passionate photographer and instructor, his images have amazed divers from around the world, such as Commander Cousteau's team, who sailed to the Pacific Ocean to study the Polynesian atolls in 1987.

Tikehau, thanks to its aquatic fauna and exceptional seabed, has been nicknamed:
the most fish-rich atoll in the southern islands of Polynesia.

Since then, for 30 years, Raie Manta Diving has been open every day of the year to share its passion with you. Today, the center is run by Romain and Flavia who work together to perpetuate the «raiemantaclub» spirit with strength and experience.
