Tahiti & the Tuamotu Islands
11 nights
Wind Star
18 Dec '28Cruise overview
The trade winds of French Polynesia have enticed sailors for centuries — and now those same beautiful breezes call you to voyage through the windward and leeward Society Islands to the serene natural beauty of the Tuamotu Islands, where pristine atolls and crystal lagoons welcome you to a hidden paradise. You’ll receive your own personal set of snorkeling equipment and fins for the duration of the voyage, custom-fit by our Marina team. So you can snorkel from your yacht’s Marina Platform, or from the beach, without having to wait in line to rent equipment. Visit Fakarava to see rare species found nowhere else on earth. In fact, Fakarava’s reef is such a unique ecosystem it’s been named a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. And with glass-bottom boats, AquaSafaris, snorkeling and SCUBA excursions, you can explore this magical world even if you don’t want to get wet.
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.
