Visit Tamakautoga on Niue’s southwestern coast for great opportunities to view spectacular marine life. Underwater visibility ranges from 30 to 100 metres (100 to 300 feet).
Buccaneer Adventures Niue Dive offers snorkelling, diving, stand-up paddleboarding and more. If you’ll be snorkeling on your own, rent snorkel, mask, fins, life vests and underwater cameras. Join a small group dive on an inflatable boat with rental gear including tanks, BCDs, regulators, weight belts and even wetsuits. Rent paddleboards and mountain bikes for more fun and exploration.
On snorkel trips you’re likely to see spinner dolphins year-round, along with parrotfish, coral and sea snakes. This part of the island is fantastic for spotting dolphins in the warm water just offshore. Between July and October, admire spectacular humpback whales that regularly swim just 50 metres (160 feet) from shore.
Water temperature will range from a low of 25 C (77 F) from June to October to a high of 29 C (84 F) from November to May. Bring New Zealand cash for activities, as many Niue services do not accept credit cards.
Tamakautoga is just a 10-minute drive south of Alofi. The village welcomes visitors. Find accommodation from bungalows to the Scenic Matavai Resort within a 10-minute drive of the village. Delve into the rich culture of the island of Niue, which is heavily intertwined with the ocean around it.
