Fall under the spell of the Society Islands, the lively heart of French Polynesia, where spectacular scenery and cultural heritage come together. Huahine charms with its preserved atmosphere and its ancestral sites, while The Gauguin’s private islet, Motu Mahana, invites you to an intimate interlude between pristine sands and the scent of vanilla. Bora Bora stands out with the dazzling beauty of its lagoon and its emblematic volcanic silhouette, while Moorea’s appeal lies in its lush landscapes and breathtaking panoramas. With white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and local traditions, these islands showcase the unique beauty and soul of French Polynesia.

Explore our excursions here.

Highlights

  • Immersion in the heart of the Society archipelago with discovery of its emblematic islands, from Bora Bora and Moorea to Huahine and other paradisical sites.
  • Discovery of ancestral Polynesian culture and its craftmanship traditions, and a timeless day on Motu Mahana for an authentic barbecue on this exclusive islet in the Taha’a lagoon.
  • PADI-certified diving options—from beginner instruction to advanced excursions—with an experienced instructor to admire Polynesian marine species.

Embarkation 28/10/2028 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Departure 28/10/2028 at 6:30 PM


The largest of French Polynesia's 118 islands, Tahiti and it's capital city of Papeete are the perfect place to begin (and/or end) your South Pacific sojourn. The Gauguin waits patiently in the harbor, a vibrant and bustling market across the street and in the evenings roulottes (food trucks) line the nearby square offering tasty local fare.

Huahine, Society Islands

October 29, 2028 Huahine, Society Islands


Arrival 29/10/2028 at 8:00 AM
Departure 29/10/2028 at 5:00 PM


Don’t be fooled by the vibe of this laid-back, secluded island. Many treasures are hidden among the lush rainforest and dramatic terrain. With a bit of exploration, you’ll uncover some of the best-preserved archeological sites in French Polynesia. Underwater treasures await as well, with a snorkel excursion in the lagoon.

Taha

October 30, 2028 Taha'a, Society Islands (Motu Mahana)


Arrival 30/10/2028 at 8:00 AM
Departure 30/10/2028 at 5:00 PM


As the day unfolds in front of you, where will you go? Exciting shore excursions await, but so does Motu Mahana, Paul Gauguin Cruises’ own private islet. Choose from swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, or simply lounging on the beach with a cold drink from our floating bar. Les Gauguines are also on hand to share musical entertainment and Polynesian crafts.

Bora Bora, Society Islands

October 31, 2028  November 1, 2028 Bora Bora, Society Islands


Arrival 31/10/2028

Explore lush peaks, wander white-sand beaches, and marvel at the iconic views of Mount Otemanu. Take the plunge with a SCUBA excursion to see the island’s colorful coral reefs, enjoy a sunset jetboat ride, or spend a lazy afternoon on our private beach*. Like a priceless Paul Gauguin painting come to life, storied Bora Bora is colorful and unforgettable. The landscape alone will have you searching for adequate adjectives, especially once you see the lagoon—“turquoise” just doesn’t do it justice. 

 

*Subject to availability as conditions allow. When unable to call there, we will be offering a tender to the pier and a free shuttle to Matira Beach, the island’s award-winning public beach that features restaurants, public facilities and shopping. Voted #1 in the best things to do in Bora Bora by U.S. News & World Report, Matira Beach boasts powdery white sand, waters in a thousand shades of blue, and is wonderfully uncrowded.

m/s Paul Gauguin

Designed specifically to glide in luxury through the shallow seas of the South Pacific, The Gauguin is a small-ship cruiser’s dream. She delivers travelers to intimate ports inaccessible to larger cruise ships, all the while providing a travel experience that is nothing short of luxurious. Once on board, guests enjoy newly-decorated spacious suites and staterooms (nearly 70% with private balconies), an onboard watersports marina, three dining venues, an extensive spa, and five-star service. Life on The Gauguin also reflects the beauty and rich cultural heritage of the islands she calls upon, with a warm, friendly feel, informal setting, and even a beloved troupe of Les Gauguins and Les Gauguines—local Tahitians who serve as onboard hosts and hostesses, entertainers, and storytellers.

During on-board lectures or on your shore visits, this expert will be there to share their precious knowledge with you throughout your PONANT cruise.

Diving

During an introduction to scuba diving or a more advanced dive for holders of the necessary certifications (level 1 on yachting cruises and 2 on expedition cruises), explore the planet’s most beautiful underwater environments in the company of a PONANT diving instructor, as well as a local instructor when required by local legislation. They will ensure that your dives are conducted smoothly and safely: supervision of four certified divers at a time, evaluation of diving skills and experience, adherence to safety stops, zones and the maximum depth authorised.

A recent medical certificate (less than 12 months) must be presented at the beginning of the cruise to the main diving instructor.
