Paul Gauguin cruises cruising in a luxurious way French Polynesia has long been the center of the universe for romantics looking for the ultimate get-away-from-it-all vacation. Adventureseekers are equally drawn to this chain of 118 islands and motus (little islands) and make the long-haul trip to dive, snorkel, hike and swim with sea turtles, black-tipped sharks and stingrays. Enter Paul Gauguin Cruises, whose flagship of the same name was purpose-built for the region. In a destination that truly is the draw, this luxury vessel provides a comfortable, all-inclusive cruise experience, where the ship, appropriately, serves as a background to the scenery. The renowned, -+5star m/s Paul Gauguin was built specifically to sail the waters of Tahiti, French Polynesia and the South Pacific. Launched in 1998, The Gauguin is the longest continually operating year-round luxury cruise ship in the South Pacific. No other luxury ship in history has offered this level of single-destination focus and expertise on a year-round basis for such an extended period of time. Like The Gauguin, The Moana specializes in warm-weather destinations, with an emphasis on delivering unique itineraries that larger ships cannot offer and exploring hidden ports throughout these regions. The ship sails during the summer months in Europe and winter in the Caribbean and Latin America.

Ships wrecked on the coral reefs in days of old provide fascinating diving and snorkeling today.

A mix of African, Indian, and Spanish cultures distinguishes Virgin Gorda, whose jagged landscape rises sharply from a turquoise sea. Among the nature trails and nature reserves that showcase the island’s spectacular beauty are the ruins of an abandoned 19thcentury copper mine on Handsome Bay, now a national park. Or visit The Baths, where giant boulders strewn about by nature have created a patchwork of pools, beaches, and trails.

Or venture afield to Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park,one of the best-preserved fortifications in the Americas and a UNESCO World Heritage Site Day 6: Les Saintes, F.W.I. Located just six miles south of Guadeloupe, this small archipelago of eight gorgeous tropical islands is a world apart with its serene, relaxing ambiance.

Paul gauguin
The Moana 14 days - 13 nights
Portugal, St. Maarten Santa Cruz de Tenerife, St John, St Barts, Philipsburg 29 November 2015 - 12 December 2015 Itinerary
Day 1: Embark the m/v Tere Moana in Lisbon, Portugal One of the oldest cities in the world, Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and its largest city. It is also the westernmost capital in Europe-and one of the most beautiful capitals on the continent. Embark the m/v Tere Moana here, and enjoy time to settle into your stateroom before the ship sets sail this evening. Day 3-4: At Sea A transatlantic crossing is one of the great traditions of cruising. The advent of the steamship during the 19th century made seafaring far safer than the sailing vessels of old and helped pave the way for the Golden Age of travel at the turn of the century. It was during this era that the idea of travel for pleasure was popularized, and crossing the sea aboard a luxury ship became a destination in itself. Now you can relive this romantic era aboard a deluxe vessel that recalls the luxury of those distant days. Begin with two days at leisure to experience the amenities of The Moana. Perhaps enjoy a live performance by our onboard pianist or watch a movie on the private DVD player in your stateroom. And make new friends over an elegant meal in one of the ship’s two dining venues. Day 4: Santa Cruz de Tenerife (Canary Islands), Spain A beautiful port city with golden beaches, wide avenues, and lush parks, Santa Cruz is home to San Cristóbal de La Laguna, the first non-fortified Spanish colonial town and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Other city highlights to explore include the Plaza de España in the oldest district of the city and the largest square in the Canary Islands; the Our Lady of Africa city market; Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Concepción, the city’s oldest church; the avant-garde Tenerife Auditorium; the Museum of Fine Arts; the Parque García Sanabria, an urban oasis renowned for its flower clock; and Playa de las Teresitas, a golden beach with stunning mountain views. Day 5-11: At Sea The Moana was designed with your comfort in mind, from her spacious staterooms and elegant public spaces to the host of amenities available for you to while away the days at sea. Enjoy a massage at the luxurious spa or work out at the ship’s Fitness Center. Pick up a souvenir at La Boutique. Take a dip in the pool.
Relax on a Balinese bed on the Sun Deck. Curl up in a deck chair with a book from our onboard library. Or simply choose to do nothing at all! Day 12: St. John, Antigua The sister island of the flat coral island of Barbuda, Antigua is the largest of the English-speaking Leeward Islands of the eastern Caribbean. Said to have 365 beaches-one for each day of the year-it boasts hospitable trade winds and a nearly perfect climate. St. John has been the capital of Antigua and Barbuda since the nation achieved independence in 1981, and as The Moana sails into port, you can recognize the city immediately by the towers of its magnificent, baroque St. John’s Cathedral. While here, you may choose from a wealth of activities, ranging from diving or snorkeling to hiking, biking, and more. Or delve into the island’s history at the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda Day 13: St. Barts, F.W.I. Chic shops are a hallmark of this “Manhattan-sur-Mer” (“Manhattan on the Sea”), known for its duty-free shopping. Others include the island’s balmy climate and brilliant blue skies, iguanas, and night-blooming cactus. Distinctly French in language, culture, and cuisine, St. Barts remains thoroughly independent in spirit. Enjoy excellent snorkeling and diving from the island’s fabulous cove-style beaches. Day 14: Disembark in Philipsburg, St. Maarten The smallest island in the world to have been partitioned between two nations (France and the Netherlands), St. Martin/ St. Maarten has prospered in peaceful coexistence for nearly 350 years. After breakfast this morning, you’ll disembark on the Dutch side of the island, St. Maarten, where you can enjoy snorkeling or windsurfing, bask on the fine beaches, visit the Zoological Botanical Garden, and haggle at the duty-free shops of the capital city, Philipsburg.

The Moana 8 days - 7 nights
Portugal, Spain Lisbon, Portimão, Cádiz, Gibraltar, Motril, Ibiza, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona 22 August 2015 - 29 August 2015 / 19 September 2015 - 26 September 2015 Itinerary
Day 1: Embark the m/v Tere Moana in Lisbon, Portugal Embark in Lisbon, and enjoy time to settle into your stateroom before the ship sets sail this evening. Day 2: Portimão, Portugal Located on the sun-splashed southern coast of Portugal, the Algarve region boasts an average of more than 300 sunny days a year and more than 100 of the finest golden beaches in Europe. Set on the banks of the Arade River, Portimão features colorful architecture, as well as excellent shopping and an abundance of restaurants and cafés. The Moana will be able to sail up the waterway directly into Seville where big ships cannot. Day 3: Cádiz, Spain Surrounded almost entirely by water, Cádiz is the oldest continuously inhabited city in Spain and arguably the oldest in Europe. It was as a great maritime center that the city earned its reputation, however-including serving as the launch point for two of Christopher Columbus’s four voyages to the New World. While here, you might visit the Old Town with its historic fortress, the Castillo San Sebastian. And contrast its winding streets with the newer section of the city, with its elegant boulevards and excellent beaches. Day 4: Gibraltar, U.K. Encompassing only about 2.25 square miles and rising to a height of roughly 1,400 feet, Gibraltar is one of the world’s most famous landmarks. Contrary to popular belief, it is not an island, but rather a peninsula, connected to the southern tip of Spain by a narrow, sandy isthmus. Explore St. Michael’s Cave, join a dolphin-watching expedition or view the island’s most famous residents: its friendly and inquisitive Barbary apes. Day 5: Motril, Spain A pretty seaside resort in the Andalucian province of Granada,
on the Costa Tropical, Motril features a historic quarter known as a fine example of Arab-Spanish urban development, as well as excellent shopping and dining. The city’s Museum of Sugar celebrates what was the city’s main industry for centuries. Enjoy diving in the warm waters off its many beaches, which include three nude beaches. Day 6: Ibiza, Spain The Balearic Islands, an archipelago in the Mediterranean off the east coast of Spain, are one of Spain’s 17 autonomous Communities. Ibiza, one of four main islands of the chain, offers superb weather, beautiful scenery, exceptional beaches, and warm hospitality. The main city of Ibiza, also called Ibiza, boasts a history that dates to the ancient Phoenicians and Carthaginians, though it is better known as artists’ and hippie colony during the 1960s and today as a popular getaway for travelers and jetsetters. While here, enjoy the city’s charming historic architecture, beautiful beaches, and lively nightlife. Day 7: Palma de Mallorca, Spain Today features a call on the capital of Mallorca, the largest of Spain’s Balearic Islands. The highlight is the city’s Gothic cathedral-one of the finest in Spain-built on the site where a Roman temple and then a mosque once stood. The Arab quarter-a warren of narrow alleyways housing museums, palaces, and courtyards-rewards exploration. Yet, Palma de Mallorca also has a sophisticated side and offers the island’s best shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. Day 8: Disembark in Barcelona, Spain The capital of Catalonia, one of Spain’s 17 Autonomous Communities, and the second-largest city in Spain (after Madrid), lively Barcelona boasts a multicultural ambiance and a Mediterranean climate and lifestyle. You’ll disembark the Moana here after breakfast this morning.
