For nearly 40 years, Aranui Cruises has inspired cultural immersion through the heart and soul of Polynesia by transporting passengers and freight throughout these distinguished islands. Staffed by Polynesian natives, this cruise embraces the road less traveled as it explores the history and beauty of the area. Today, the company is thrilled to announce the readdition of Bora Bora to their 2024-2025 Discover the Marquesas itinerary.
In the central South Pacific Ocean, just northwest of Tahiti, lies the renown mountainous island of Bora Bora. The lagoon’s famous opalescent blues and greens surround the majestic “Mount Otemanu,” the island’s spectacular highest peak. Any passenger will be quick to discover why this perfect island paradise is esteemed as the Pearl of the Pacific, with volcanic history covered in lush vegetation, vibrant turquoise waters, and pristine white sand beaches.
Bora Bora joins an itinerary of 12 days and 11 nights sailing through the Marquesas, Tuamotu and Society Islands. These lands flaunt mountains, valleys, plateaus and cliffs that attract explorers, writers, painters and artisits. Discover biosphere reserves, the Cathedral
Notre Dame and botanical gardens supplemented by the opportunity to snorkel, dive, swim and more.
Days at sea can be spent participating in immersive workshops on weaving, dancing, cooking, playing the ukulele or wrapping a pareo. Invest in relaxation with a dip in the pool, a day on the deck or a trip to Aranui’s Polynesia spa.
“We are excited to announce the readdition of Bora Bora to our Marquesas itinerary,” said Eric Wong, Aranui Cruises’ Executive Vice President, North America. “This cruise, rich in culture, becomes magically expanded by Bora Bora’s perfect paradise. We’re sure our guests will be pleased by this new addition to our 2024-2025 sailing schedule.”
