Summer in Muri - Turtle Magic
Unique Personalised Turtle Experiences with Muri Retreat
Spending time with turtles in Rarotonga has become hugely popular and is often on people's wish lists. One of the major disadvantages of this is that the popularity of these tours is now so busy, that they have up to 50 people at a time snorkelling with these beautiful animals at Avaavaroa Passage.
Simon has been developing alternatives where you paddleboard and snorkel in more secluded places and spend time with them in small groups.
Each experience is unique due to variables such as tides, weather, and location. They also have a maximum of 3 people and are designed to give the turtles respect and space, protecting these experiences for future travellers.
Talk to Simon about these experiences and see what can be designed for you.
