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 lunch of local delicacies is served in the shade.
Please note: Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, a hat and insect repellent. 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 reef, or touch any underwater animals for safety and environmental reasons. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. The boat environment requires vigilance; guests must be physically and mentally alert and fit enough to negotiate steps and the vessel layout. Boat may be wet, personal belongings should be stored with caution.
