More Info:
We have a bunch of cats and have options on some monohulls. Do you have a preference? Our Share the Sails include a stateroom (or bunk for a single) and partial food provisioning. This is basic breakfasts and lunches and a couple dinners. Most people like to get the local flavor ashore and we always end up with extra food at the end. You get yourself to the charter base and back and bring trinket and meal money.
Depending on your flights you may need to book yourself a room. We are looking into a sleep-aboard the first night. We do a different anchorage each night in the islands so I encourage people to leave some time on either end of the adventure to explore on their own or go back to the spot they liked the most and spend a couple of days. Ferries travel throughout the islands.

The Brochure:
Regarded as the most beautiful island in The Pacific and certainly the most beautiful lagoon in the world, Bora Bora boasts tranquil translucent waters and fascinating marine life. Home to just over 4000 inhabitants, the surrounding motu islets of Bora Bora are the ideal spot for a secluded, romantic honeymoon. Matira beach has white, welcoming sand with warm, shallow waters and the island was the first place to build the widely recognized water bungalows that, like sailing, have become synonymous with French Polynesia.

Raiatea is the second largest island of French Polynesia after Tahiti and boasts lush green valleys, stunning waterfalls and pineapple and vanilla plantations.
Tahaa is enclosed in the same lagoon as its twin sister island, Raiatea. Explore peaceful villages or climb up into the mountains for a spectacular view.
Visible from Raiatea, Tahaa, and Bora Bora is the peaceful island of Huahine. Comprised of Huahine Nui (big Huahine) and Huahine-Iti (little Huahine), the two islands are joined by a narrow strip of land enclosed within a protective coral necklace. Off shore 'motu' islets lie inside the barrier reef providing luscious gardens for Huahine's watermelon and cantaloupe industry. The lagoon, bordered by white sand beaches, is rich with sea life and the village of Maeva is a wealth of archaeological sites.
