Why the motorboat works so well here
A sun pad and a bimini for the nap, a ladder for the swim, and waters that line up the inside-lagoon loop around Tahaa, the reef motu, and Bora-Bora or Huahine one passage away: the formula lands every time. Departure: the Uturoa and Apooiti marinas, French Polynesia’s main charter base.
Booking the right dates
High season runs from May to October, the dry, breezy austral winter — book those weeks early, and compare: this is the market's deepest category, so the one where the gaps hide.
