Moorea wildlife entertainment, South Pacific

Fondling or being fondled by stingrays is one of Moorea's more unusual experiences.

There are two ways to swim with rays in Moorea - in a crowd off a boat or during lunch on an island. The rays will climb all over a swimmer to get at a piece of fish, which is slightly unnerving as their mouths are underneath. Would you let a stingray near your nipples?

Swimming with stingrays during a lunch break. And no, they don't sting in this context, but they are intimidating. They're perfectly beastly in fact.

One swimmer, attacked by an absurdly territorial and aggressive Picasso Triggerfish [absurd considering that they're only 4 inches [10cms] long] - attempts to escape by hitching a ride on an passing stingray. Not a smart move.
