Luxury Cruises to Tahiti

The reality of Tahiti is as dreamy as the images the name conjures up: bottle green palm trees, plunging waterfalls, sparkling black-sand beaches, and aquamarine lagoons against a backdrop of spiky mountains. Little wonder that this island in the South Pacific is so popular with honeymooners.

During a luxury cruise to Tahiti, you’ll begin to understand how the colors, scents, and exotic allure of this beautiful island inspired creatives over the decades. Explore the dazzling underwater world, discover ancient sacred sites, head deep into the backcountry, or simply relax on a pristine beach in the tropical sunshine, succumbing to the island’s seductive charms.

Tahiti Cruise Highlights

Lagoons & Reefs

Tahiti’s warm, clear water is perfect for snorkeling and diving. A string of islets and teeming coral reefs protect shallow lagoons, where you can swim and snorkel among rays, black-tipped reef sharks, sea turtles, and dazzling reef residents, like the orange-and-white clownfish. You could see dolphins and whales, too. Join a catamaran tour for a day and jump straight off the boat into the blue-green depths, the reefs dappled by sunlight.

History & Heritage

On a Tahiti cruise, you’ll have the chance to visit one of the most sacred places in French Polynesia, Arahurahu Marae. This ancient stone structure is still in use by locals as a place for the reenactment of traditional ceremonies. You can also see Point Venus, where 18th-century explorers Captains Cook, Wallis, and Bligh made their way ashore after anchoring off the island. For a glimpse into more modern history, visit the former home of author James Norman Hall.

Lush Landscapes

Tahiti’s most obvious allure may be its beaches and lagoons, but the interior of the island is a paradise of cascading waterfalls, dense rainforest, and tropical flowers, the scent of gardenia and frangipani heavy in the air. Take a four-wheel-drive tour to the green Papenoo Valley, surrounded by mountains, and stop for a refreshing dip in the river.
