Itinerary Enquire / Cabins Overview Cruise Line Ship Decks

PAUL GAUGUIN Cruises is offering an exceptional 8-day voyage leaving from Tahiti to discover the gems of the Society Islands, including extraordinary landscapes and enchanting historical and cultural treasures.

You will be captivated by the resolutely Polynesian ambiance that prevails aboard the Paul Gauguin: a ship with a relaxed and international atmosphere, especially designed for sailing in these shallow turquoise waters. This marvellous cruise will take you towards destinations that have inspired many artists, such as the novelist Herman Melville, the painters Henri Matisse and Paul Gauguin, the singer-songwriter Jacques Brel and many others.

You will be dazzled by the sumptuous lagoon of Bora Bora, with its distinctly recognisable volcanic silhouette, by the incomparable beauty of Huahine, by the turquoise waters of the motu Mahana, our private vanilla-scented paradise and by Moorea, with its hillside pineapple plantations and its verdant peaks overlooking the island.

Between pearl farms and white sandy beaches, French Polynesia will reveal its many mysteries to you. Surrounded by superb lagoons of translucent waters edged by exceptional coral reefs, the islands of Polynesia are undoubtedly some of the most beautiful in the world and home to an astonishing and rich wildlife.
