From palm-fringed white sand beaches, crystal clear waters, and colorful coral reefs teeming with colorful fish to sacred archaeological sites, the islands of Tahiti are a dream destination. Windstar has sailed in Tahiti for 36 years, so no one knows the islands better. The newly renovated all-suite Star Breeze makes a circular run from Pape’etē, and the seven-day Dreams of Tahiti itinerary explores six exclusive islands, adding romantic Bora Bora, the heart-shaped island of Mo’orea, and the sacred island. of Raiatea, considered the cradle of Polynesian culture.
Vacation packages including airfare and hotel can be obtained from Los Angeles and Seattle. (With year-round voyages to Tahiti, Windstar also offers itineraries of up to 18 days, adding those that travel to the remote Marquesas islands, Tahiti Foodie Cruise Tours, and Star Collector Voyages, which combine cruises to enjoy the destination more deeply. )
Guests can swim, snorkel, and kayak from the yacht’s water sports platform, hike, scuba dive, jet ski, and even go scuba diving to locate their own pearl. The new Polynesian cultural ambassador on board can teach you how to speak Tahitian, play the ukulele, or tie a sarong. You will also have the opportunity to learn about Polynesian dances by local artists. And since Tahiti enjoys a warm, tropical climate year-round and Windstar offers trips here year-round, it’s a great time to visit.
