Building the route out of Raiatea

Leave the harbour — the Uturoa and Apooiti marinas, French Polynesia’s main charter base — then string the anchorages together: the inside-lagoon loop around Tahaa, the reef motu, and Bora-Bora or Huahine one passage away. The local rule: run the exposed leg in the morning, come home in shelter.

Reading the water

Steady trades outside and flat lagoon water — the passes are crossed under engine and full attention. A RIB shrugs off the chop better than its crew does: adjust speed and trim.

How it works

Rather than juggling four tabs, run one search: the catalogues of Boataround, SamBoat, Click&Boat and GlobeSailor are queried in parallel and the boats in Raiatea ranked at the price actually displayed. You then book directly with the operator, at no extra cost. To understand how the platforms differ, here is our comparison.
