Rent a yacht in French Polynesia.

French Polynesia is without doubt paradise on earth, since Bougainville’s trip in 1768, this mythical yacht charter destination has attracted and bewitched generations of explorers, writers and painters. Sprinkled across the South Seas, the 118 islands of French Polynesia have never once failed to make worldwide travels dream. The magnificent decor enhances the image of a rediscovered Eden; the high islands, overseen by crowns of sharp peaks, shreaded by erosion and cut by deep valleys emerge majestically from the lagoon; the islets present desirous sandy beaches, brimming with virgin nature and lush coconut trees; the atolls, are lost in the immensity of the ocean. There aren’t enough adjectives to describe this haven, but a yacht charter in French Polynesia is most definitely a spiritual and cultural vacation experience that will leave you breathless.

Tahiti will be the first island to welcome you with its scenic richness and underwater wonders; the combination of azure lagoons and rainforest peaks in Moorea make it the most beautiful island in the world; Huahine is beautiful by its nature but fascinating with its vanilla and pearl farms; called the « Faraway Heaven », Raiatea boasts an amazing environment; Taha’a is a botanical beauty with hillsides covered in banana, watermelon and coconut groves; popular Bora Bora is protected by a reef barrier and is renowed for its mesmerizing beauty; discover the second largest atoll in the world called Rangiroa; Apataki & Toau Atolls is the world’s largest coral atoll chain in the South Pacific; finish in Fakarava an amazing scuba diving spot.

Tahiti

Start your charter in Tahiti

Tahiti is a beautiful destination with wide white-sand beaches, mountains and blue lagoons. Your crew will be more than happy to organise some diving and hiking expeditions. The Faarumai Waterfalls are the well-known spectacular falls that we highly recommend. Enjoy your water toys and if you are lucky, cruise to see some whales.

Moorea

Your Itinerary to Moorea

Cruise towards Moorea, a mix of lagoons and rainforest peaks. It is considered the most beautiful island in the world with French Polynesian charm. It has eight voluminous mountain peaks which rise from turquoise lagoons. Safari, ziplines and Ray Feeding tours can be organised upon request.

Hike to the dormant Volcano to enjoy a beautiful sunset.

Huahine

Your Itinerary to Huahine

Cruise for approximately seven hours in order to arrive to Huahine islands. Enjoy the views over lush forests, local villages and crystal-clear lagoons. Visit some vanilla and pearls farms or explore the archaeological site of Maeva to learn more about the Huahine’s history and culture.

This is also a perfect spot for surfing, diving and other water activities.

Raiatea

Raiatea is the second largest island and is called a “Faraway Heaven”.

The island hosts a large number of moorings and bays in an amazing environment.

The Mount Temehani shelters a rare flower which can be found nowhere else. The island also shelters the only navigable river in French Polynesia.

Enjoy a canoe ride in the dense tropical forest of Purau or go for some horseback riding.

Taha’a

Your Itinerary to Taha’a

Taha’a is a true botanical beauty and has hillsides covered with banana, watermelon and coconut groves.

The island is shaped like a flower and is known for the Tahitian vanilla orchid as 80% of all vanilla produced in French Polynesia grows here.

Visit the UNESCO designated historical site of Taputapuatea, with the largest ancient temples on display.

The island is perfect for hiking, snorkelling and a safari Jeep tour for further discoveries.

Bora Bora

Your Itinerary to Bora Bora

Bora Bora is protected by a reef barrier and is perfect for diving. Visit the main village of Vaitape and enjoy some shopping and dining facilities. Explore the Mount Pahia and Mount Otemanu during your guided Jeep Safari. The crew will be happy to organise some activities such as parasailing, skydiving or seaplane tours for you . Experience an evening at the famous Bloody Mary restaurant, known for fresh food, signature cocktails and a great ambiance.

Rangiroa

Your Itinerary continues to Rangiroa

The crossing to Rangiroa will take approximately sixteen hours depending on the weather conditions. It is the second largest atoll in the world. There are over 400 small islands and this is a perfect destination for scuba diving. Enjoy a swim with manta rays and green turtles. On land you can visit the main villages of Avatoru and Tiputa. Spend the night here at anchor and enjoy the relaxing atmosphere.

Apataki & Toau Atolls

Your Itinerary to Apataki

Welcome to the world’s largest coral atolls chain in the South Pacific.

Apataki spreads along a 30km-long turquoise lagoon.

Dive with sharks and rays or cruise to the opposite side if you are a fan of kitesurfing and windsurfing.

In the late afternoon cruise to Toau, a coral atoll discovered by Captain Cook in 1774. Your crew can organise a lovely sunset BBQ on a romantic deserted beach.

Fakarava

Your Itinerary to Fakarava

Fakarava is another marvellous scuba spot. Dive with sharks and big fish species.

Visit the Topaka Lighthouse, a 15 meter tall pyramid. Stop by Havaiki Lodge, a nice spot with chairs and tables placed out in the water. There are a few cars on the island, but biking is the mean of transport used by the locals to get around.

Disembark and board a plane for approximately one hour in order to get back to Tahiti.

We recently had a wonderful experience with Arthaud Yachting. Fiona was our charter manager and event coordinator, and her attention to detail was impressive.

Francesca VW
BEST/HONEST/PROFESSIONAL services. Kristine was amazing to work with - professional and customer focused. I wouldn't go anywhere else. She provided the information and options up front - clear and detailed - she's super!
Jackie Barrett
Arthaud Yachting is the best. I have used them for the past two years during a conference in Cannes. Jeff is very responsive and helpful leading up to the trips. They offer many different options and size boats depending on your needs. The boats are lovely and the staff is attentive, on time and trustworthy. Highly recommend using Arthaud for any private yachting needs in Cannes.
Michael Meyers
I want to share with anyone interested in booking a safe and wonderful day on the water you must use this team. Jeff and Captain Stephan and his crew made our holiday a memorable one. The crew is fantastic and the catamaran is a pleasure to be on. Captain Stephan and Jeff make a great team and made us feel safe and comfortable so we could enjoy a beautiful day on the blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea.We will most certainly be sailing with them again next year!Bon voyage
Another A Story
We had an excellent experience booking our charter with Arthaud Yachting. We were in touch with Jeff who was very easy to liase with and brilliantly detailed and organized communication throughout. The day of the charter went super seamless and the crew on the boat was extremely flexible and accommodative.So looking forward to booking with Arthaud again!

We had a wonderful day charter for a family reunion, arranged through Arthaud Yachting. The crew were fantastic, couldn`t have been more helpful and the charter catamaran was ideal for our group. I would certainly charter through Arthaud again.
