It’s a while ago. I don’t remember the exact place. It was a quiet day, hardly any tourists. We got lucky. we took a boat from Papeete (Tahiti) to Moorea. In Moorea we took one of their open small bus. we stopped at a bar restaurant that was real fancy. But it was closed, so we walked through the patio and accessed the beach. The half day was spent on that beach with only a native couple further away. The closest i have been to a tropical paradise. The best snorkeling ever along with Pennekamp reef state park (Florida).

I went to Moorea too. That is exact, 1 to 2 feet is full of coral and fish. I also saw a manta ray lol, but it was deeper like 20 feet. Tahiti is lousy compared to Moorea. Pat

Wow This is the second extremely helpful answer. I m starting my homework. Thank-you Pat and Kris

I really appreciate the help and will look at your link. One thing, you and the other poster wrote that you did not know which country I was from but I did write it "USA". Thanks again Pat

Hi We booked a cruise with MSC, we bought their insurance and it's not that good (I know "Read it first next time"). It's not like it's an arm and a leg, no sweat. What concerns me more is that we only get $25000 medical each. Looking around, for not much we can get 10 times that. We can't cancel the insurance provided through MSC. So the question is "Is it legal to have 2 insurances?". We are in the USA, sailing to the Bahamas and Mexico. Thxs Pat and Kris

God i ain’t that bad 🤣👍🏻

Thank-you Pat

Nice pair of Nike’s or Reebok. No worned out shoes. Thxs Pat

They have that fancy surf and turf dinner one night. what is the dress code? slacks and polo ok for a man? what about shoes? I assume sneakers are a no no? Not worried about my wife, she dresses up. Thxs Pat and Kris

Thanks to all. We are looking into it. Pat

Hi We are rookies. We purchased the MSC insurance. Then reading here and there we realized it might not be such a good plan. It is non refundable but it does not matter. I was wondering if the law allows us to purchase a second insurance. I read here about insuremytrip.com and entering some info, we get so much more medical coverage. MSC $25000 medical per person LOL, that's probably the ambulance LOL (Exaggerating for fun). I hope we can, i don't care about another $200 when the consequences might be devastating. Thanks Pat and Kris

Is there a chance you Can you message me your 3 to go sites? thxs

Hi 3rd cruise coming up in October in the Western Caribbean with MSC. The next one will be in January, looking at booking for the Eastern Caribbean. Is it worth booking a cruise while on one? We hear it can be good deal. Thxs Pat and Kris

Thanks!

Lots to look into and i really appreciate the help. one thing that i did not make clear, is that when i say my wife needs a guide, it’s someone that brings you to the snorkeling excursion. He goes in the water, sometimes pointing at interesting things but often being there in case a guest needs help. Thxs again P and K
