Raiatea

Known as the “Sacred Island,” Raiatea is regarded as the spiritual and cultural cradle of ancient Polynesia. It’s home to Taputapuātea, a revered UNESCO World Heritage Site where ocean-faring traditions and sacred rituals once began. Today, life on Raiatea moves at a slow pace. Home to just a few thousand residents, the community still thrives on fishing, livestock, and cultivating prized crops such as vanilla, watermelon, and copra. If you’re lucky, you might witness the age-old tradition of stone fishing—villagers wading into the lagoon and slapping the water with stones to herd fish ashore. Raiatea also produces some of the South Pacific’s most stunning black pearls—a reflection of the island’s pristine waters and deep sense of mana.

Arrival: 7:00 am / Departure: 4:00 pm

Taha’a

Welcome to Taha’a, the “Vanilla Island”—where the air smells heavenly, the lagoon gleams in every shade of blue, and your only task is to relax. You’ll turn this slice of paradise into your private beach club for the day. Imagine swaying palms, soft white sand, and warm turquoise waters that invite you to jump right in. Soothing island music sets the vibe as you snorkel, swim, or float with a tropical drink in hand—barefoot bliss at its best. A beachside barbecue adds flavor—grilled island favorites, chilled cocktails, and a laid-back atmosphere all around. Optional excursions allow you to explore fragrant vanilla plantations and sacred cultural sites, but honestly? Staying put sounds perfect, too.

Bora Bora

Known around the world for its surreal beauty, Bora Bora is a dreamlike paradise of turquoise lagoons, lush volcanic peaks, and floating luxury. You’ll have two full days to experience everything this South Pacific icon offers—from peaceful moments on the beach to exciting water adventures. But your first evening becomes one of the most memorable parts of the entire trip. As the full moon rises over Bora Bora’s lagoon, you’ll gather for an unforgettable Source Celebration Feast on a private motu—a small island just offshore, surrounded by calm, crystal-clear water. Imagine a lantern-lit beach, a delicious island-inspired dinner under the stars, and a captivating fire dancer performance that lights up the night—all set against the moonlit sea and the silhouette of Mount Otemanu. It’s more than just an event—it’s a Source ritual. Sacred, joyful, and filled with mana.

Bora Bora

After a night of moonlit magic, your second day in Bora Bora is all yours to explore, relax, and enjoy. Whether you’re seeking gentle adventures or peaceful relaxation, this island offers both effortlessly. Surrounded by the emerald peaks of Mount Otemanu, a clear, blue lagoon awaits—ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or simply gazing at from a shaded lounge chair. Optional excursions may take you across the water by catamaran to secluded coves, vibrant coral gardens, or even to spot the legendary manta rays. Want to slow down? Find your quiet stretch of white-sand beach, sip something cold, and let the island remind you what it means just to be.

Departure: 5:00 pm

Huahine

Often called one of French Polynesia’s best-kept secrets, Huahine is where time slows down and the soul exhales. Framed by a deep, crystal-clear lagoon and lush green peaks, the island’s quiet beauty feels both wild and sacred.

Comprising two islands joined by a bridge, Huahine is home to just eight small villages—and a welcoming spirit that echoes the slower, simpler rhythms of old Polynesia. White-sand beaches, serene bays, and ancient marae (sacred sites) reveal a land rich in tradition and untouched by hurry.

Whether you’re exploring hidden coves, visiting local artisans, or simply enjoying the warmth of the people, Huahine invites you to go deeper, breathe easier, and just be.
