Maori Storytellers & French Polynesian Treasures
Sail to pristine and uncrowded Cook Island coves during this exploration of tropical isles and Māori culture with stops throughout French Polynesia. Slip onto your own sleek Waverunner and set a course for remote snorkeling outside Uturoa on Raiatea. In the Cook Islands, relax on isolated Rarotonga beaches and then venture into friendly Aitutaki for small town tropical fruit smoothies, tuna poke bowls, and fish curry. Take in the Māori culture as you interact with Cook Island natives, while English is widely spoken in the islands, the official language is Cook Islands Māori. Sip cool refreshments on a scenic sunset cruise across Bora Bora's shallow lagoon waters prior to an overnight port stay, or check into romantic bungalows on the beach at one of the most popular island resorts. Sample fragrant Taha'a vanilla at a plantation or snorkel amid curious stingrays and docile reef sharks. Explore stone temples and archaeological sites on Huahine, or board an outrigger canoe bound for a remote motu islet where you'll learn how to cook up a local lunch with a side of relaxing warm, sandy beachfront.

Star Breeze
Star Breeze is large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can’t reach.
