New to Regaldive: French Polynesian Liveaboards -Wondrous Dive Sites with Sharks, Mantas and Dolphins
UK-based dive holiday specialist Regaldive has announced that it has further expanded its liveaboard programme with the introduction of French Polynesia. This destination is renowned as one of the most spectacular diving locations on earth and is well known for its abundance of shark species and manta ray cleaning stations.
French Polynesia’s plethora of small islands is surrounded by stunning white beaches, with crystal clear warm water setting the scene for some great diving. Situated in the heart of the Pacific Ocean, French Polynesia is made up of 118 volcanic and coral islands and atolls, dispersed in the South Pacific, stretching for more than 2,000km.
This island archipelago is home to some of the most wondrous dive sites, with incredible shark action, manta ray cleaning stations and bottle-nosed dolphins. Divers can expect to see black tips, silky, tiger, grey reef, hammerhead and silver tip sharks cruising the reef. Schools of snapper and fusiliers, huge Napoleon wrasse and marbled groupers and stunning hard corals are also on the diving menu.
Introducing the French Polynesia Master liveaboard:
- Brand new, with a steel hull, the French Polynesia Master welcomes aboard 25 guests for
7 night or 10 night dive safaris cruising around Fakarava, Unesco Biosphere Reserve, Marquesas Islands and the Tuamotu Archipelago. - 7 night trips aboard French Polynesia Master start from £2,599 per person in a twin lower deck cabin including 18-20 dives (weather permitting), transfers, full board, air, tanks, weight belt and weights. Flights are excluded, but can be arranged through Regaldive.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
