Highlights
SWIM WITH HUMPBACK WHALES

PRIVATE ISLAND BEACH PARTY
An unforgettable opening night. Step onto a secluded motu where firelight, music, and ocean air set the tone. Barefoot in the sand, cocktails in hand, surrounded by the lagoon — this is where the journey begins with energy and connection.
LUXURY CATAMARAN LIFESTYLE
Your floating home in paradise. Sail between islands aboard a private catamaran, where every moment is elevated — from morning coffee on deck to sunset drinks overlooking endless turquoise water.
TAHA’A CULTURAL DISCOVERY
A deeper connection to the islands. Explore the heart of Polynesian life with visits to a traditional pearl farm and local rum distillery, combined with a vibrant island journey through lush landscapes and authentic communities.
BORA BORA LAGOON EXPERIENCE
Iconic, effortless beauty. Swim, drift, and explore in some of the clearest water in the world. From coral gardens to shallow sandbanks, every moment feels surreal.
MARINE LIFE ENCOUNTERS
A living ocean. Snorkel vibrant reefs, glide alongside rays, and witness the diversity of life beneath the surface. Each encounter adds another layer to the experience.
PREMIUM DINING & SOCIAL MOMENTS
Connection through experience. From beachside feasts to refined dining, every meal becomes part of the journey — shared, relaxed, and elevated by the surroundings.
SUNSET SESSIONS & FINAL CELEBRATION
The rhythm of the journey. As the sun drops each evening, the atmosphere shifts — music, drinks, and shared stories create moments that bring the group together.
FREE FLOW EXPLORATION
Your time, your pace. With space to explore, unwind, or seek adventure, the experience adapts to you — whether that’s diving in, slowing down, or simply being present.
AVATAR TREE — BORA BORA
Hidden above the lagoon, where the jungle meets the sky, lies one of Bora Bora’s most surreal and lesser-known viewpoints — the Avatar Tree. Perched on the edge of a dramatic ridge, this natural formation feels almost otherworldly. Twisted, sculptural, and perfectly positioned, it frames one of the most breathtaking views in all of French Polynesia. It’s not just a viewpoint. It’s a moment of elevation — physically and mentally.
PEARL FARM - TAHA’A
The Origin of Black Pearls Set within the calm, protected waters of Taha’a’s lagoon lies one of French Polynesia’s most authentic and fascinating experiences — the Black Pearl Farm. Here, nature and craftsmanship come together to create something truly rare. Far from commercialized tourism, this is a place of patience, precision, and tradition — where each pearl tells a story years in the making.
ATV Adventure Bora Bora
Explore Bora Bora beyond the lagoon on an adrenaline-filled ATV adventure through lush jungle trails, rugged terrain, and panoramic mountain viewpoints. Ride deep into the island’s wild interior, discover hidden lookouts overlooking turquoise waters, and capture unforgettable views of Mount Otemanu. It’s raw, fun, and exhilarating — a perfect contrast to the calm of the lagoon.
Jetski Bora Bora Lagoon
Ride across Bora Bora’s crystal-clear lagoon on an exhilarating jet ski adventure, where turquoise waters stretch endlessly beneath dramatic mountain peaks. Explore hidden motus, glide over shallow reefs, and take in iconic views of Mount Otemanu from the water. Fast, free, and unforgettable — this is pure adrenaline in paradise.
Scuba Diving Bora Bora
Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Bora Bora and discover a vibrant underwater world teeming with life.

Sky Dive Bora Bora
Take the ultimate leap over Bora Bora and experience paradise from a perspective few ever will.

OVERVIEW
Your journey begins the moment you arrive in Raiatea — where the pace slows, the air softens, and the lagoon stretches endlessly in shades of turquoise.
Step aboard your private catamaran and sail into the rhythm of French Polynesia. As the coastline fades behind you, you glide across calm, crystal-clear waters toward the island of Taha’a — known for its vanilla-scented breeze and untouched beauty.
Swim stops, warm sun, and that first feeling of freedom set the tone for what’s to come.
SIGNATURE MOMENT
PRIVATE ISLAND BEACH PARTY
As the sun drops below the horizon, the energy shifts.
You arrive at a secluded motu where the beach comes alive — firelight flickers, music drifts through the palms, and cocktails flow under a sky full of stars.
Barefoot in the sand, surrounded by the ocean, this is where the journey truly begins.
Taha'a
Day 2 - Taha'a Discovery
OVERVIEW
Taha’a reveals itself slowly — lush, fragrant, and deeply connected to tradition. From jungle-lined roads to quiet coastal villages, this is where culture, craftsmanship, and island life come together.
It’s a day of colour, flavour, and connection — balanced with time in the water, where the lagoon remains your constant companion.

Feel the culture. Taste the island. Live the moment.
Bora Bora
Day 3 - Sail to Bora Bora - Arrival Into Paradise
You leave Taha’a behind and sail across endless shades of blue, where the horizon blurs into something dreamlike. The ocean feels wider, the air lighter — and then, slowly, Bora Bora appears.
Mount Otemanu rises dramatically from the lagoon, impossibly sharp against the sky. It’s iconic, unmistakable, and even more powerful in person.
Today is about arrival — not just to a place, but to a feeling.
THE EXPERIENCE

- First approach into Bora Bora - Panoramic views of Mount Otemanu
- Lagoon swimming and snorkeling
SIGNATURE MOMENT - FIRST VIEW OF BORA BORA

You’ve arrived somewhere iconic. Let it sink in.
Bora Bora
Day 4 - Whale Encounter
Swim With Giants - Today is why you came.
Out on the open ocean, everything slows down. The search begins — not rushed, not forced — but guided by instinct, experience, and respect for the environment.
And then, when it happens, it’s unforgettable.
A presence beneath the surface. A movement in the distance. The quiet anticipation builds until you are face to face with something truly extraordinary.

The scale, the stillness
Bora Bora
Day 5 - Bora Bora Luxury
Indulge the Experience - After the depth of yesterday, today is about ease.
Bora Bora reveals a different side — softer, slower, effortlessly beautiful. The lagoon becomes your playground, the pace becomes your own, and every moment feels designed for enjoyment.
THE EXPERIENCE
Lagoon exploration in crystal-clear shallows
- Shark & ray encounters in calm, warm water
- Coral reef snorkeling
- Private beach or beach club experience
- The water here feels unreal — shallow, warm, and impossibly clear.
You drift, swim, and move effortlessly between moments — from marine encounters to complete stillness. Rays glide beneath you, the sun reflects off the surface, and everything feels light. This is Bora Bora at its most iconic.
Dinner becomes an event — whether onboard with a private chef or at a carefully chosen setting onshore. Fresh seafood, good wine, and soft island light create the perfect close to a day of pure indulgence.
Slow down. Soak it in. This is the reward.
Bora Bora
Day 6 - Free Flow Paradise
Your Day • Your Rhythm - Today is yours.
No schedule, no pressure — just the freedom to experience French Polynesia in your own way. By now, the rhythm of the islands has taken over. You move differently, slower when you want to, fully present when it matters.
This is where the journey becomes personal.
THE EXPERIENCE
- Paddleboarding across calm lagoon waters
- Ocean dives and swim stops from the boat
- Optional surf sessions (conditions permitting)
- Island exploring and hidden beach moments
- Time to relax, reset, and recharge
There’s no single highlight today — and that’s the point.
You drift between moments. A spontaneous dive. A quiet paddle across glassy water. A stretch of sand that feels like it’s yours alone.
It’s effortless, unplanned, and exactly how it should be.
Back onboard, the group comes together one last time — music, drinks, stories, and laughter carrying into the evening.
No plans. No limits. Just you, the moment, and the ocean.
Taha'a
Day 7 - Departure
Slow Exit • Last Moments

The lagoon is still, the light softer, the energy calm. After days of movement, connection, and discovery, everything slows to a gentle pace.
There’s no rush — just time to take it in one last time.
THE EXPERIENCE
- Sunrise swim in calm, clear water
- Morning coffee on deck
- Final moments onboard
- Transfer to airport
SIGNATURE MOMENT - THE LAST LOOK
You pause.
The water, the light, the mountains in the distance — it all feels familiar now. What was once new has become part of you.
It’s not just about leaving a place. It’s about carrying something forward.
Bags are packed, but the feeling lingers.
You arrived as a traveller. You leave in the zone.
