When you’re traveling to such a dream locale as Tahiti and her islands, you want to go with a company that knows the destination inside and out, from the culture to the cuisine and how to divide your time among such a string of jewels. Windstar is your partner for Tahiti, showing you French Polynesia in a way that no one else can, after 35 years of sailing the islands. Here, you can enjoy a tropical drink on deck, dive off the stern into a stunning blue-green lagoon, explore the tropical forests, or visit an exotic black pearl farm.
Windstar’s intimate yachts are the ideal way to explore this region, able to anchor where larger ships cannot go and keeping your experience smaller and more refined. And there is more to come! Beginning in early 2027, the iconic sailing yacht Wind Star joins Star Breeze in French Polynesia, bringing real working sails and an intimate 148-guest experience to the islands.
Now, it’s easier than ever to visit Tahiti with Windstar, with combined air packages that cover the cruise, hotel and airfare. Whether you choose a 7-, 10-, or 11-night boutique cruise, the packages include roundtrip airfare on Air Tahiti Nui from Los Angeles as well as pre- and post-cruise accommodations at fantastic properties like the Intercontinental Tahiti Resort & Spa. The packages also provide arrival and departure transfers, and island feast with fire dancers in iconic Bora Bora, and taxes/fuel charges.
The 7-night Dreams of Tahiti is a best-of cruise, including world-class snorkeling, Moorea’s Three Coconut Trail, and Bora Bora’s lovely white sand beaches and mesmerizing lagoon. Or for a longer sailing, the 10- and 11-night journeys also visit the sister Tuamotu Islands, including Fakarava, a sunny isle that’s been called one of the planet’s most spectacular places and named as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Whether you choose to focus on the rare species of nesting birds or immerse yourself in the endless marine life that lives under the gentle waves, this is an authentic experience perhaps unmatched anywhere in the Pacific.
You’ll also have a complimentary signature beach party to look forward to, on a private island. There, Windstar’s executive chef will carefully create and execute a special menu, celebrating the freshest local flavors and dishes. The party will also include an extraordinary demonstration of local culture, artistry, and tradition, culminated by Polynesian fire dancers performing—a memory that will live on in your mind for many years to come.
