Practical
Visit by pre-booked guided tour only. Wanderlog lists a full-day boat tour with shark and ray snorkeling, coral gardens, turtles and a motu lunch, rated 4.7 (317 Google reviews) and 4.5 (1,309 Tripadvisor reviews), and gives the plus code G74X+8WQ on the 'Récif du Motu' east of the main island. The coordinate is that plus code decoded (approx); OSM maps a 'Lagoonarium' attraction further south off Motu Piti Aau (16.5201°S 151.7235°W), so confirm the meeting point when booking. Current prices and operating days not verified; check before going.
