Explore paradise one island at a time
French Polynesia cruises combine luxury, variety, and effortless island-hopping, letting you see more of the South Pacific in one unforgettable journey.
Sailing through French Polynesia is one of the most magical ways to experience this South Pacific paradise. Cruises offer a unique perspective on the islands, allowing you to wake up to stunning lagoons, dramatic volcanic peaks, and colourful coral reefs each day. From Tahiti to Moorea, Huahine, Bora Bora, and beyond, you’ll glide between islands at a leisurely pace, stopping to explore secluded beaches, snorkel among tropical fish, or hike lush trails.
Luxury and Adventure on Board
Luxury cruises and boutique yachts provide the perfect balance of adventure and comfort. Onboard, you can enjoy gourmet dining, relaxing spa treatments, and guided excursions that bring each island to life. Days can be filled with paddleboarding, kayaking, diving, or simply soaking in the scenery from your deck. Evenings offer sunsets, starlit dinners, and the gentle rhythm of the ocean to lull you into relaxation.
Tailored Experiences for Every Traveller
One of the charms of a French Polynesian cruise is the variety of experiences available. You might explore traditional Polynesian villages, learn about local crafts, or visit remote islands that are off the beaten track. Families, couples, and solo travellers all find something to delight them, and the itineraries are easily tailored to suit your pace and interests. A cruise lets you see more of French Polynesia without the hassle of flights between islands, offering an immersive yet effortless way to explore one of the world’s most beautiful destinations.
