ITINERY

You can fly directly into Faa'a International Airport, Tahiti on or before the 19th of July 2025. When you arrive we'll familiarise you with the yacht, systems and safety equipment and you will join us for a crew welcome dinner. Our crew will assemble on the 20th of July at the marina in Papeete and we will aim to depart (subject to weather) around midday on the 20th of July 2025 and leave the marina, heading for the first of our island anchorages.  You are welcome to stay onboard from the date you arrive, but if you plan to arrive prior to 19th of July, you may need to arrange accommodation ashore. 

The goal is to circumnavigate the island group over the following 13 days, stopping daily at selected bays, attractions and islands en-route.
