Awaken each day to the living beauty of Polynesia as you gaze across the region’s azure lagoons, cascading waterfalls, verdant forests, and pristine beaches alive with seabirds.

Visit up to 20+ islands on a single cruise — from Tahiti’s lagoons to Moorea’s peaks — and enjoy overnight stays in vibrant ports that reveal each island’s rich heritage.

Dive Deep Into Polynesian Culture & Adventure

Explore Polynesia’s temples, coral reefs, and fern grottoes, connect with local traditions such as weaving and dance, and uncover ancient Tahiti through its art and architecture.

Indulge in Authentic South Pacific Flavors

Enjoy mahi-mahi and other fresh local ingredients on board and sample Fijian Nama “sea grapes” or dine on Tongan staples cooked in an underground umu (earth oven) on shore.

Reach Tahiti’s Hidden Gems Aboard Perfectly Sized Ships
