We signed up at Top Dive for a refresher dive, mostly because it had been 6 years since I had done any SCUBA diving. We arrived at Top Dive at 8AM March 11th as scheduled. Met with our dive-master Moana who explained where we would be going (the "aquarium"), what we would do when we got there, a review of... More

Nicolas and Audrey were complete professionals and have excellent English speaking skills. I do not speak a lot of French and they answered all of my questions and concerns. The other dive centers in Rangiroa compare themselves to Topdive - telling you, "They're very expensive, too big and cannot make it a pleasant experience. " NOT TRUE! I am a... More

Dove with Top dive on my (Tahitiian Breeze Cruise) on the Oceania cruise line Marina. Did the Drift dive through the pass. What a roller coaster ride. Top dive gave a great Pre dive briefing and prepared the divers perfectly for the dive. Great operation! Nice people! Thanks again! Ed G

I was cruising on the Oceania Marina and this dive was booked by Marie in Moorea. We dove Tiputa reef to about 70 feet and the dive was outstanding. We saw Napoleans, barracuda, black tipped reef sharks, and many varieties of fish. Isabelle was great in that when I was running low on air she gave me her octopus so... More

I was on the Ocean Princess for a 10 day cruise around French Polynesia in Mid-February 2013. I wanted to dive several of the islands and TopDive made it easy. I was able to use email to communicate the ship's schedule and my diving wishes. Marie and Francois on Moorea arranged the bookings for four islands, provided a multi-dive discount... More

The reef is in very good shape and the drift dives were excellent. Did the morning and afternoon with Nitrox and can only thank especially Nicolas a very careful and calm... More

We did a 10 am and 2 pm dive while visiting from a cruise ship. It had been rainy and overcast and the waves were 12-15 feet, but they took us out anyway, and what a ride! They use a large hard bottomed zodiac style boat that holds about 15, and it was full. You sit on the pontoon with... More

I dove with TopDive Rangiroa in February 2013. My DM was Nicolas, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about him. I am a new diver, and this was not an easy dive. Nicolas understood our ability level, and really helped to make the dive successful. The seas were really high that day, and the ride out in the zodiac... More
