On the island of Moorea in Tahiti there is a Lagoon Motu Picnic, hosted by Albert Tours and Brendan, a premier tour company, that is an absolute blast. First stop after departure early in the morning is at the reef near the Sheraton Hotel that involves the crew feeding around 20 to 25 black tipped reef sharks while those who want to get in the water to observe the sharks moving back and forth. Then to shallow waters to hand feed stingrays in waters that are about 4 to 5 feet deep, this is really interesting as the stingrays are friendly and fun to play with. Then lunch and snorkeling in the lagoon, which means small island. For more about going to the South Pacific with Brendan go to www.brendanvacations.com or call 800-421-8446.
