Papa Whisky, Tahiti
★★★★☆
(371)
This site takes the form of a vast amphitheater created by the collapse of a portion of the underwater plateau. Divers have two exploration options, one at the southern end of the arena and the other at the northern point. The depth of the site ranges from 8 meters to 40 meters.
The southern part of the site is covered with yellow gorgonians in depth, while the northern part is rich in coral. A must-pass-through location for pelagic observations.
