The very epitome of a tropical paradise, the Cook Islands fiercely preserve a culture and traditions

all its own. Take in verdant jungles, stunning white-sand beaches,

and—most of all—one of the most exquisite lagoons in the world.

The spectacular Society Islands are the centerpiece of all of our trademark

itineraries. See all of Tahiti's greatest hits while floating above a million shades of blue

and taking in sweeping mountain peaks.

A part of French Polynesia yet a world apart, the remote Marquesas offer mist-laden mountains,

a distinct culture, and untouched wilderness. Venture into the rugged interiors, marvel at ancient

petroglyphs and learn about artist Paul Gauguin.

One of the world’s premier destinations for diving and snorkeling, the Tuamotus are also renowned for their pearl farms and peaceful,

remote villages. Snorkel sheltered lagoons, explore exceptional dive sites, or rent a bike

to visit white sand beaches.

In 2020, in addition to our trademark 7, 10, 11 and 14-night itineraries, we go beyond the International Date Line

to visit the Kingdom of Tonga, Fiji and Melanesia.

Among the easternmost countries in the world, nudging the international

dateline, Fiji and the Kingdom of Tonga remain undeveloped, making

them charming and unspoiled.

Discover the treasures of tropical Indonesia, you’ll find lush volcanic

mountainscapes, a profusion of fragrant flowers, and terraced hillsides.

Offshore lie coral reefs vibrant with marine life. And everywhere, you’ll find a people whose warm hospitality and

humor are legendary.

Countless artists and authors have been mesmerized by French Polynesia, 118 islands and atolls that glisten like a strand of prized Tahitian pearls. Let the awe inspire you as it did

Herman Melville, James A. Michener, Henri Matisse—and, of course, Paul Gauguin himself.

Five destinations await you over the course of seven days. The Gauguin brings you an experience unavailable to larger vessels, cozying up in the bays of Tahiti, Huahine, Taha’a, Bora Bora, and Moorea.

Words will never capture the paradisiacal beauty that awaits you at every turn. Set your heart aglow and immerse your senses with jaw-dropping views painted with

dreamlike colors. This is the adventure you will never forget.

Paul Gauguin Cruises is exceptional and unique in its offerings. Owned by French Polynesia’s leading luxury hotel and cruise operator, The Gauguin draws upon

TAHITI You’ll embark your cruise on the largest island—Tahiti. Located halfway between Los Angeles and Sydney, the island of Tahiti is divided in two: Tahiti Nui in the northwest and Tahiti Iti on the southeastern peninsula.

Fittingly, your journey begins in the vibrant capital city of Papeete, where you can explore markets, museums, and galleries.

Awaiting in the harbor: the m/s Paul Gauguin.

Welcome aboard. Unpack. Settle in. Explore your exquisitely appointed home for the next seven days.

Sleep well. You’ve got quite a day tomorrow.

VAIRAO*, TAHITI ITI

On select dates, The Gauguin offers the unique opportunity to explore Tahiti Nui's younger sister, Tahiti Iti, whose name literally means "Little Tahiti." As the only cruise line that visits this unspoiled paradise, we offer you a front-row seat to everything this bewitching half of Tahiti offers, from authentic Polynesian culture to wild coastlines peppered with daredevil surfers. In these waters, it's best to sit by the shore with your camera and leave the feats of bravery to the locals.

HUAHINE In the brilliant morning light, a palette of blues and greens greets you as The Gauguin reaches her first port. The excitement is tangible as guests gather on deck and snap pictures, lost in absolute wonder.

Huahine. “The Garden Island.”

Lush rain forests, dramatic landscapes, and idyllic lagoons are just the beginning of one of French Polynesia’s best-kept secrets. Hidden temples embellished with rare orchids, romantic enclaves, and untouched hideaways await at every turn.

The pace here is relaxed. Tranquility floats in the air. Serenity surrounds you like an embrace. The splendor of the landscape playfully wrestles with the kaleidoscopic wonderland just beneath the surface of crystal waters. Let your own desires shape your day. Wander the village. Take in the spectacular views. Lounge on the beach.

TAHA’A [Motu Mahana]

You’ll know it’s near by the intoxicating scent of Tahitian vanilla in the air (80 percent of French Polynesian vanilla is grown here). The tranquil island of Taha’a is not a mirage, but it seems like one. Volcanic hillsides burst with banana, watermelon, and pineapple. Nature’s bounty is matched by the opportunity for adventure. Come to dive, snorkel, sail, and explore. Visit a pearl farm to learn how Tahitian pearls are cultivated.

Motu Mahana. Ever have a friend with their own private South Seas island? Now you do. Just offshore of Taha’a lies Motu Mahana. A motu is a tiny island, and Mahana (literally, "Light of Sun or Day") is The Gauguin’s own private paradise, exclusive to her guests. Beneath swaying palm trees, the day is yours to create. Snorkel surrounded by technicolor fish. Grab a kayak for a bit of exploring. Ashore, you may find a game of volleyball or watch your hosts, Les Gauguines and Les Gauguins, demonstrate how to open a coconut or tie a pareo. Indulge in an overwater massage. And when the mood strikes, a sumptuous barbecue feast awaits—complete with cocktails from full and floating bars.

BORA BORA (OVERNIGHT) It’s like your first love. The one you never forget. This island—arguably the most celebrated of the Society Islands—is the one that will forever remain in your heart. It's just not possible to casually say, “Oh yeah, and then we went to Bora Bora.” It inspires hyperbole, envy, and romance on an epic scale; it’s easy to understand why it is one of the world’s fairy-tale honeymoon destinations.

Located just northwest of Tahiti, “the Pearl of the Pacific" is surrounded by motus and embraced by a coral reef—which means off-the-charts snorkeling. With picture-postcard Mt. Otemanu in view, bask in the sun, kayak, or paddleboard on Paul Gauguin Cruises' exclusive beach. Whether you seek high adventure or supreme tranquility, the vibe here is friendly and relaxed. Smiles come easily. Gentle breezes whisper, “Stay a while. And promise to come back.” This really is heaven on Earth.

MOOREA (OVERNIGHT) Of all the ports on your itinerary, Moorea will be the one you find most hypnotic. The orchestra of colors and textures—encompassing jagged volcanic ridges, lush green jungle, and aquamarine waters—reach a crescendo that's nothing short of symphonic.

Said to be the inspiration for the mythical Bali Hai in James A. Michener’s Tales of the South Pacific, Moorea’s landscape is dominated by eight mountain peaks rising from a shimmering lagoon. But in contrast to its spectacular vistas, Moorea is laid-back and welcoming. On land and sea, adventures for all levels await: hiking, whale watching, snorkeling—even ATV riding for the truly adventurous.

Papeete, Tahiti Your evening arrival in Papeete gives you the opportunity to sample the city’s nightlife. Take the short walk to the park across from the harbor, Vai’ete Square, where more than 30 food trucks, called Les Roulottes, serve up fresh, inexpensive, and very good food—everything from Chinese or French to the local catch of the day.

In one wonderful week, you’ll explore the best of the South Pacific
