Best for intermediate divers, 5-50m, boat entry, moderate current.
Les Roses is a boat-access reef and wall site in Tahaa, French Polynesia, featuring a drop-off that descends from a 5-metre reef top to 50 metres. Divers should be comfortable with moderate currents, which are best managed by planning the dive to move with the flow along the wall. Visibility typically ranges from 10 to 30 metres, providing clear sightlines across the reef structure. Water temperatures remain consistent between 26 and 29 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Due to the potential for strong currents and variable visibility, divers must remain close to the boat at all times. This site is suited for intermediate divers.
