The Islands of Tahiti Vacation Guide 2019

Page 78

CRUISING AND YACHT CHARTER To truly experience the awe of The Islands of Tahiti, approach them from the sea. Feel the transition from the deep, untamed royal blues and rolling waves of the Pacific to the welcoming hues of a quiet, hushed lagoon. Follow the trail of flower scented air that announces the land long before you see, then watch these magical islands rise, enchanted, from the horizon. Pause to sense the moment when dream becomes awake within the dream. And notice the first careess of romance as it enfolds you in its grip. Cruising becomes discovering in Tahitian waters where you can embark on a voyage to explore these mystical South Pacific isles. Here, the ports-of-call are uncrowded and charming, the ships are smaller and luxurious, the neon-blue waters within the lagoons are calm, and the ocean journey between the islands is short. On these voyages, each island stopover will become your next favorite idyll and unforgettable memory.

Water Activities Floating atop the lagoon playgrounds around most of the islands, each ship offers activities for all ages and abilities. Each island anchorage offers a new range of activities including jetskiing, windsurfing, waterskiing, parasailing, canoeing, diving, stand-up paddle boarding and snorkeling. Hop on a glassbottom boat, charter your own catamaran or powerboat, or anchor on your own private island for the day.
