I'm having harder time than usual planning my annual dive trip. This year will be our honeymoon so want something a little special. I have 2 weeks give or take to go to FP. Original goal was to do a week's liveaboard at Fakarava, then 6 nights or so in Bora Bora. Would like something adventurous followed by something luxurious. But the flights are making scheduling tough, and the current plan would give us 3 nights in Tahiti, then 7 nights on a liveaboard, then only 2 nights in Bora Bora before returning.
If i drop the the liveaboard and did land based diving, I could do 6 nights land based diving, then 6 nights bora bora. I don't want to do too many island hops. Where to go for the first 6 nights? Fakarava / Rangiroa / Moorea where i'm currently looking at.
Mrs. and I are decently experienced divers (300 and 800 dives respectively). Been to Raja Ampat, Palau, Maldives, Tubbataha. Haven't seen a hammerhead or dolphin while diving, so those would be neat. For hotels, never heard the concept of Pension hotels before. While we are both happy to stay on the most basic of liveaboards, would like something not to budget for our honeymoon.
thanks in advance for tips and advice.
