Under the azure sky of the South Pacific, set off on a journey into the heart of the Society Islands and Tuamotu, Polynesian archipelagos in which dazzling blue lagoons and coral reefs form a real island paradise. From Tahiti, each port of call will reveal majestic islands and preserved atolls with immaculate beaches. In the Tuamotu Islands, Rangiroa invites you to discover its underwater treasures: multicoloured fish, gracious rays and harmless sharks dance between the lagoon and the ocean. In Fakarava, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the marine fauna comes to life in a fascinating ballet. The Society Islands will reveal themselves between tropical forests and volcanic landscapes: Huahine, a mysterious and wild island; Raiatea, the sacred cradle of Polynesian culture; and the motu Mahana, a private island with turquoise waters. Bora Bora and Moorea, with their enchanted lagoons and lush pitons, will encourage contemplation and moments of awe throughout your journey.
