My wife and I booked an all day snorkel trip with Mike and Mere on the Black Pearl in late April and had a fantastic time. We snorkeled outside the reef and numerous locations inside the reef. Mere was in the water the whole time pointing out interesting sea life. We had a very nice lunch on One Foot Island... More

Our snorkelling trip with Black Pearl was the best day we had on our holidays.Mere and Mike were fantastic hosts and made our day unforgettable. Mere joined us in the water and pointed out different things, she also encouraged me to snorkel in the ocean, I am so glad i did as it was amazing. The lunch was fantastic, my... More

Hiring Mike and Mere was the best thing we did other than choosing Aitutaki over Rarotonga for our vacation. Mike and Mere were great with our 5 year old by entertaining him and even play pretend with him by the boat so Mere can take us further out to snorkel.The lunch they provided was beyond what we expected,grilled freshly caught...

Mike & Mere took us out for a morning bottom and lure fishing and smorkelling outside and inside the reef. It was WELL WORTH it. They were both great. Gave us a feed of the fish we caught to cook for lunch. We can recommend them highly. Mike & Mere took us to do exactly what we wanted. And if... More

One of the best day we had on the island. We agree with what everyone else says and more, We went on our last day on the island and regret it, i think we would have booked a second day, We went with another couple and our 3 year old who swam beside us the whole time.

We went on a half day lagoon and snorkeling trip with Mike and Mere. Absolutely fantastic. They take you to the best snorkeling spots, take photos of you on the water and on the islands, Mere gets into the water and tells you about the island and fish. We were taken to Honeymoon island where we saw the Red Tailed... More

Went for a half day deep sea fishing trip and a whole day lagoon trip - deep sea fishing unfortunately terminated when the wife had a large technicolour yawn!!! Mike did explain that at least 80% of people have the same problem with seasickness and was very understanding about it. So the day then continued with a fantastic lagoon trip... More

We had read all the positive reviews about Mike and Mere on Trip Advisor, and booked accordingly. It is almost not worth writing a review other than to say - we agree with absolutely everything that has been said. This is superb, and they rate the nicest people possible. They picked us up at Aitutaki Escape - the best accommodation... More

So you have to understand that I proposed to my girlfriend when out with Black Pearl, so my review may be a tad rose colored, but our day with Mike and Mere was the most brilliant experience we've had. I told you it would be rose colored... Still I will try and ignore the whole engagement part and focus on... More

Despite some sea sickness and just the one catch (a nice tuna) we had a great time with Mike on the Black Pearl. The weather had been pretty shocking in the previous days, high winds and rain, and we only had a few days left and were pretty keen to give some charter fishing a go, it is the one... More
