French Polynesia yacht charter

A French Polynesia yacht charter is an escape to paradise on Earth. Bora Bora, Tahiti and Moorea are well known for their exotic beauty, but there are five archipelagos in French Polynesia in total, each of the 118 islands offering unique treasures to the yacht charterer.

Wherever you go on a French Polynesia yacht charter, you will float through sapphire seas and above pristine coral reefs that teem with life. More developed islands offer sophisticated dining and spa resorts, while the freedom of a luxury yacht provides a chance to reach the more remote parts of this group of islands. Take the tender ashore to wander along a deserted beach, with only your footsteps and washed-up coconuts for company, heading back to your yacht for a relaxing massage. Enjoy watersports in breathtaking bays, or hike up volcanoes to enjoy superb coastal views.
"Tahiti’s glorious pearls come in a very attractive array of colors from black to green to bronze to dark or pale grey. I have yet to return from French Polynesia without a few gorgeous Tahitian pearls in my luggage."

Why Visit French Polynesia?

 
ISLAND HOP & RECONNECT WITH NATURE
Lush forests, mesmerising lagoons and the lure of the ocean await. The islands of Tahiti offer serenity and breathtaking scenery. Cruise from island to island and explore what each has to offer in what promises to be an unforgettable experience. Immerse yourself in island life by kayaking around Raiatea lagoon to catch sight of ancient petroglyphs carved into the coastal basaltic stone. Sink your toes into sand once graced by Tahitian royalty on private atoll Tetiaroa, now the exclusive Brando resort. For thrill-seeking adventurists, Tiki Parc on Moorea offers five treetop assault courses that gift highline zip wires through the rainforest canopy. 
 
 
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN POLYNESIAN CULTURE
The islands are rich with ancestral myths and traditions. Tattooing, for example, is a rite of passage for special moments in life that can narrate acts of bravery, for example,  or depict a spiritual protector. Each island has its own customs. The Austral Islands are known for intricate weaving, find traditional jewelry in the Society Islands, and sculpture art in Marquesas. To complete the Polynesian experience, attend a dance show or va'a race and learn how to make tapa or mono'i to bring home as a token of your time in French Polynesia.
 
 
EXPLORE THE DEEP BLUE
Dive in and wander through the underwater canyons, swim by the dolphins, and relish in the silence of the magical world found below the water where turtles swim around colourful coral and gray sharks survey the area. Watch as a swordfish passes you as you explore the aquarium of the French Polynesian waters where scuba diving and snorkeling are nothing short of a magical experience. Each year, the humpback whales fill the waters with their hypnotic songs and the manta rays' fins greet you at the water's edge.
 
 
MAKE IT A ROMANTIC GETAWAY
It is no surprise French Polynesia is a top destination when it comes to weddings and honeymoons. Celebrate your love in a white sand paradise. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves crashing against your overwater bungalow in Bora Bora. Delight the senses with world renowned gastronomy, private outings in dugout canoes, relax with couples massages and more. Moments like these promise to help love blossom and grow.
