Today, National Geographic Orion is in the Society Islands group of French Polynesia. We started the day by exploring the lagoon of Taha’a. Here, guests had the opportunity to swim with blacktip reef sharks. We were treated to up close views of numerous sharks in the crystal-clear water. Later in the afternoon, the ship relocated to the island of Raiatea, where we visited the sacred site of Taputapuatea. It was a great day.
