Board a boat for a scenic ride to Taha'a, passing a pristine blue lagoon and islets on the way to the mainland.
Hopping 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, and there is no doubt you will thoroughly 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 your outing on the beautiful, clear waters en route to an islet that is the venue for the perfect beach break.
Put on your mask and snorkel and head into the water, or simply relax on the sandy shoreline with your feet in the sea.
A lunch of local delicacies will be served in the shade.
Notes:
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. Bring insect repellent. Participants must know how to swim and be comfortable wearing snorkel gear, being in deep water, and coping with occasional currents. Expensive clothing or jewelry should not be worn on tour. Do not touch or step on the coral. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. Depth of water is not guaranteed due to currents and sea level variation. Sailing on board a boat requires vigilance; participants must be physically and mentally alert to the boating environment and fit enough to negotiate steps and the vessel layout. The boat may be wet; personal belongings and devices should be stored with caution.
