104-0433_IMG.JPG (42352 bytes)Visiting a Motu Near Raiatea

Our first day in Raiatea was a glorious day with the sun shining and the water a delicious turquoise blue.  We had decided to do a "Motu Snorkeling and Pearl Farm Visit" shore excursion from the Renaissance R3.  A small covered boat took us to a beautiful motu near Raiatea's sister island of Tahaa.  We snorkeled in quintessential South Seas water - perfectly clear and warm.  We sat on the white sand or at small tables on the beach and drank ice cold drinks.  What a great way to spend the morning!
