Board a boat for a scenic ride to Taha'a, passing a pristine blue lagoon and islets on the way to the mainland.
Stepping ashore, you'll set out on a gentle walk to reach the vanilla plantation that makes Taha'a so famous. The vanilla grown here is world-renowned, so enjoy this delightful sensory immersion into its flavor. Used in the composition of many products, vanilla is the ideal take-home souvenir and can be purchased from the boutique.
Returning to the boat, continue across the beautiful, clear waters to an islet that is the venue for the perfect beach break. Put on a mask and snorkel, or simply relax on the sandy shoreline with your feet in the water.
A picnic lunch of local delicacies is served in the shade.
Please note:
Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen, light clothing to act as a full cover-up for further protection from the sun, and a hat. Swim at your own risk. Guests participating in water activities must be competent swimmers and be able to cope with occasional currents. Depth of water is not guaranteed due to currents and sea level variation. Do not touch or step on the coral or touch any underwater animals for safety and environmental reasons. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. The boat environment requires vigilance; participants must be physically and mentally alert, aware of the surroundings, and fit enough to negotiate steps, ladders and the vessel layout. Access to the restroom is available via a straight ladder. Please realistically assess your physical fitness and ability prior to booking. The boat environment will be wet; bring personal items and devices at your own discretion.
