Why dive here
With 140+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, eagle rays, humpback whales, manta rays and mobula rays (devil rays) - Teavapiti pass offers some of Bora Bora's richest drift diving. Water ranges 27-29°C, warmest February, March, April.
Teavapiti Pass delivers a reliable drift dive, letting the current carry you through the channel. You'll often find blacktip reef sharks here, cruising against the flow, along with schools of jacks and fusiliers. It's a straightforward dive that works well for those comfortable with moderate currents, offering a good chance to see larger pelagics moving through the pass. We'd suggest it as a solid second dive of the day.
