11 nights
Star Breeze
3 Oct '27Cruise overview
Experience the best of French Polynesia’s Tuamotus, Marquesas, and Society Islands in a range of remote, romantic, and unspoiled tropical settings on this 11-day sailing. Seek out seabirds and snorkel among harmless black tipped reef sharks in Fakarava’s famous blue lagoon, a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Learn firsthand about Polynesian life and cultural traditions in the remote village of Omoa on Fatu-Hiva–a Marquesas Islands settlement recognized as one of the most isolated travel destinations in the world. Take a SUV tour of the remote Taipivai Valley on Nuku Hiva and explore Herman Melville’s former refuge and setting for his novel, Typee. Go with the flow as you learn drift snorkeling with Tiputa Pass experts, or float aimlessly above coral formations and colorful fish in Rangiroa’s coral garden. Create the perfect romantic moment during an overnight port stay in Bora Bora at an iconic South Pacific beachside resort.
Itinerary
Papeete, Tahiti
Papeete will be your gateway to the tropical paradise of French Polynesia, where islands fringed with gorgeous beaches and turquoise ocean await to soothe the soul. This spirited city is the capital of French Polynesia, and serves as a superb base for onward exploration of Tahiti – an island of breathtaking landscapes and oceanic vistas. Wonderful lagoons of crisp, clear water beg to be snorkelled, stunning black beaches and blowholes pay tribute to the island’s volcanic heritage, and lush green mountains beckon you inland on adventures, as you explore extraordinary Tahiti. Visit to relax inside picturesque stilted huts, which stand out over shimmering water, as you settle into the intoxicating rhythm of life, in this Polynesian paradise.
