French Polynesia is the land of Tahiti, famous for its romance and beauty. The fabled isle of Bora-Bora lies in the Tahitian Leewards, together with a cluster of other equally magnificent islands largely encircled with coral reefs that create expansive lagoons with calm waters. As the remnants of ancient volcanoes, the islands soar skyward in grand beauty. One of the highlights of a Tahiti yacht charter is anchoring in the fjord-like bays and marveling at the scenery after a day spent snorkeling, scuba diving, and enjoying the beaches. Encircling barrier reefs provide a habitat for sea turtles, sharks, dolphins, porpoises, colorful hard and soft coral, and more than 500 species of fish, making the Tahitian Leewards one of the world's top snorkeling and scuba diving venues.

A Tahiti yachting itinerary typically includes easy passages within the protected waters, behind the beautiful coral reefs that encircle the islands, allowing for relaxed sailing in one of the most exotic cruising grounds in the world. Snorkeling and scuba diving on the reefs, swimming and sunbathing on white-sand beaches, enjoying the delights of luxury resorts, shopping, and fine restaurants; and spending quiet evenings aboard your crewed luxury yacht in picturesque anchorages, are all part of what makes sailing in Tahitian waters so appealing.

Popular 7-Day itinerary Suggestion for Tahiti and French Polynesia
It is just a short hop north inside the barrier reef to the exotic island of Tahaa and Apu Bay. As you draw near, the unmistakable sweet scent of vanilla carries to you on the balmy wind. Tahaa is nicknamed the Vanilla Island because of its vanilla plantations. Pick up a mooring at the Taravana Yacht Club, a French restaurant and hotel with a convivial bar. The food is excellent at the restaurant. Moorings are free of charge for diners.
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast as you watch the birds on the nearby motus, then set sail back around the top of Bora-Bora within the calm waters of the lagoon. It is off the wind all the way. Pt. Raititi is near the Bora-Bora Hotel, shops and art galleries. Fine swimming and snorkeling abound at the nearby beaches.
Your mooring off the Taravana Yacht Club puts you in an excellent position to begin a splendid off the wind sail from Pt Raititi to fabled Bora-Bora. In an easterly, the wind will be off the starboard quarter, ideal for fast sailing the way it is supposed to be. Off the starboard bow, the heights of Mt. Otemanu soar 2,362 feet above an azure sea, with impressive Mt. Pahia nearby. Head through the reef pass into the calm waters of Bora-Bora's lagoon. The Bora-Bora Yacht Club is about one nautical mile to the east, a famous gathering place for world cruisers. Enjoy cocktails in the casual and colorful island bar.
Get an early start for your open-water passage to Tahaa. You will be off the wind the entire way, sailing fast and loving every minute. The soaring heights of Raiatea and Tahaa rise from a cobalt sea, cottony puffs of white cloud, stark against a brilliant blue sky. This is South Pacific sailing at its best. Once you're through the pass at Tahaa, the fjord-like expanse of Haamene Bay is just a couple of miles away, scenic and secure. If you are yearning to dine ashore, the Hibiscus Restaurant is a nice place to eat dinner.
Set sail early for your cruise from Haamene Bay to Tahaa. Once you are through the pass at Tahaa, it is a short sail to beautiful Faaroa Bay on the east side of Raiatea. Faaroa Bay is highly recommended for two reasons: There is much to see on the east side of Raiatea inside the reef, and you'll be ideally positioned for your upcoming sail to Huahine. You can pick up a mooring in Faaroa Bay or anchor. Alternatively, you can stop at the Moorings base to reprovision and stay the night.
After you explore the Aopomau River at the head of Faaroa Bay, a definite must when visiting Raiatea, a short sail southward takes you to the village and bay of Opoa. This is an excellent day stop. Ashore are a little village and the magnificent archaeological site of Taputapuatea Marae, the most important in all of French Polynesia. Return to Faaroa Bay for a good night's rest.
Although you will not want to sail back to reality (you can always come visit the Tahitian Leewards again!), the final leg of your charter will be an easy passage south back to the Moorings base. Please check in by 10:00 a.m.
The above starting from prices are per yacht (not per person) charter on an all-inclusive basis for each passenger (up to 6 passengers for The Moorings 4800) and also include the costs for the boat, captain, gourmet chef, hostess, food and beverage (including alcohol) for the duration of the charter and all water sports options.
