Sitting on the right offers a stunning perspective of the crystal-clear lagoon waters, the village of Rotoava, and the dramatic coral reef boundary.
The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic Tiputa Pass upon departure from Rangiroa and the sprawling Garuae Pass when approaching Fakarava, showcasing the vibrant contrast between deep ocean blue and lagoon turquoise.
