Fantastic experience — very friendly and extremely patient with a non-confident swimmer. Small group meant we were able to have one-on-one help the whole time, and we saw turtles within minutes.

Fantastic experience today with the Sea Pace team. My 4th turtle trip with different operators in Rarotonga over the last few years and easily the best one — more personal, better guiding, and far more respectful of the turtles.

Had an amazing swim today with Sea Pace! Everything was amazing. Team was kind and very professional. Our guide kept us safe in the passage and made sure everyone got their moment with the turtles.

The highlight of our whole Cook Islands trip. Tiny group, no crowds, and the photos our guide took underwater were genuinely beautiful. Cannot recommend enough.

Local and took the whanau out — the crew know that passage better than anyone. Safety was clearly the priority from the first minute. Turtles everywhere.
