More Society Islands & Tahiti on m/s Paul Gauguin
Cruise, Ocean cruise, Small Ship/Yacht
Embark on a mesmerizing journey through the Society Islands, a true embodiment of your dreams of French Polynesia. Delight in the allure of the idyllic landscapes, from the revered Raiatea with its sacred UNESCO site, to the serenity of Huahine, aptly nicknamed the Garden of Eden. Spend an unforgettable night beneath the majestic peaks of Bora Bora and be captivated by the dazzling lagoons of Moorea. Prepare to step into a paradise painted in vibrant hues, where azure waters, swaying coconut palms, and sun-kissed beaches come to life, offering an enchanting escape on our very own private motu.
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.
Paul Gauguin Cruises operates the highest-rated and longest continually-sailing cruise ship in the South Pacific, the renowned m/s Paul Gauguin, designed to explore the pristine lagoons of these islands, while our proud team of local Tahitians extend genuine Polynesian hospitality. Artful onboard features include luxurious, oceanview accommodations with balconies in select staterooms, gourmet dining, a lavish spa offering signature treatments, an expansive deck and outdoor pool, fitness center, a boutique, and a lounge with live entertainment introducing you to Polynesia’s vibrant cultures. The Gauguin also offers a watersports marina for kayaking, paddleboarding, and PADI SCUBA diving programs. Only with Paul Gauguin Cruises can you visit our private island of Motu Mahana (off the coast of Taha’a) where food, drink, and live music await.
In September 2019, Paul Gauguin Cruises joined PONANT’s family, the world leader of small ship cruising.
