Question Tuamotus, South Pacific

Does anyone have info on the Tuamotu Islands near Tahiti in the South Pacific? I'm trying to plan a surfing/diving/fishing trip and would like to look into liveaboards and/or if it's possible to travel between islands and get boats out to the good spots? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Heard that you can trade bottles of alcohol for high grade black pearls if you catch the locals before they ship them over to the mainland....pretty remote out there - good luck.

I had a couple of friends that went to Samoa and loved it. That was a couple of years ago, no crowds at all. I looked on wavehunters, they look like just about the only people that do it. We're you going to charter a liveaboard? Try wavecast.wetsand.com or surfline.com for info on Samoa.
