30 Jul '26Cruise overview
Sail to pristine and uncrowded Cook Island coves during this exploration of tropical isles and Māori culture with stops throughout French Polynesia. Slip onto your own sleek Waverunner and set a course for remote snorkeling outside Uturoa on Raiatea. In the Cook Islands, relax on isolated Rarotonga beaches and then venture into friendly Aitutaki for small town tropical fruit smoothies, tuna poke bowls, and fish curry. Take in the Māori culture as you interact with Cook Island natives, while English is widely spoken in the islands, the official language is Cook Islands Māori. Sip cool refreshments on a scenic sunset cruise across Bora Bora’s shallow lagoon waters prior to an overnight port stay, or check into romantic bungalows on the beach at one of the most popular island resorts. Sample fragrant Taha’a vanilla at a plantation or snorkel amid curious stingrays and docile reef sharks. Explore stone temples and archaeological sites on Huahine, or board an outrigger canoe bound for a remote motu islet where you’ll learn how to cook up a local lunch with a side of relaxing warm, sandy beachfront.
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.
