Romantic Dive Bora Bora — Private Dive with Black Pearl Gift

A Private Romantic Dive in Bora Bora — With a Black Pearl Surprise

The black pearl is presented underwater — one of the most intimate and memorable moments available in Bora Bora

This is one of the most emotionally specific tours on the island. A private scuba dive for two in the Bora Bora lagoon, during which one partner presents the other with a black pearl at the bottom of the sea. The entire dive is filmed and professionally edited. You come home with a pearl, a film, and a memory that is genuinely hard to replicate anywhere else in the world.

No diving experience is required. The guide stays with both of you throughout and has worked with complete non-swimmers — one review describes a couple who did not know how to swim completing the experience safely and calling it something they will cherish forever. The patient, private format makes this accessible to anyone regardless of experience. Maximum two participants per session.

100% of couples who have done this rated it five stars. Booked an average of 70 days in advance. If you are planning something significant in Bora Bora, this is the most memorable way to do it underwater.

How the romantic dive works

Two hours from pickup to return, with the pearl presentation happening underwater during the dive.

1. 01
   Pickup confirmed the day before — The operator contacts you the evening before your dive to confirm the exact pickup time and location. Departure is at 2pm. A shared boat transfers you to the dive site.
2. 02
   Private briefing and equipment — Your private guide gives a full briefing on the equipment, the descent, and what to expect.

3. 03
   The dive and the pearl presentation — You descend into the Bora Bora lagoon with your private guide and a professional cameraman filming the experience. During the dive, one partner presents the other with a black pearl at the lagoon floor. The moment is captured on film.
4. 04
   Return transfer and edited film — The boat returns you to your pickup point. The professionally edited film of your dive is included and delivered after the experience.

What’s included

Who is this experience for

• Couples marking a significant occasion — anniversaries, proposals, honeymoons. The pearl presentation underwater with a professional film of the moment is designed for exactly this.
• Non-divers and non-swimmers — the private guide is patient, experienced with nervous participants, and has safely guided complete non-swimmers through this experience. No prior experience of any kind is required.
• Anyone planning a surprise — one partner can organise this without the other knowing the pearl moment is coming. Contact the operator when booking to discuss how to set it up as a surprise.
• Honeymooners — the combination of a private lagoon dive, a black pearl gift, and a professionally edited film makes this the most distinctive honeymoon experience available in Bora Bora.
