Fausse Passe de Paea
★★★★☆
(144)
Stunning drop-off interspersed with fissures and overhangs at the edge of a rich little pass. Probably one of the most beautiful sites in Paea. Not to be missed!
You will surely be disturbed by the turtles as their number is significant. Only the Napoleon wrasses and leopard rays from the pass can rival them.
