Arriving in French Polynesia was incredibly exciting! We got into Tahiti late and took the ferry over to Moorea the next day to start our expedition. Day 1 we got settled into our beautiful oceanfront home and enjoyed meeting the locals....pink whiptail rays and blacktip reef sharks. Day 2 was the first day exploring the pelagics where we got to hang with pilot whales and the first humpback whales of the trip!

Every winter in Moorea the humpback whales come to give birth and mate. We were treated with moments with mom and baby, where baby chose to trust us and come to play. Even more playful than the baby whales were the pink whiptail rays that would dance with us on the sandbar in the lagoon. Of course you can't forget the sharks! We encountered blacktip reef sharks, grey reef sharks, nurse sharks, lemon sharks, and whitetip reef sharks. No tigers this year but that just means there's even more of a reason to go back next year!
