About this experience
Experience Polynesian sailing on a Sunset.
Entirely built in Moorea, Vaapiti is the ideal vessel for a unique adventure. During the outing, I'll be sharing my knowledge of the techniques and legends of Polynesian sailors.
We'll mainly be sailing and we'll be able to get you involved.
Several stops are planned (turtle zone, stingray and shark spot, underwater tiki, secret spot...).
The excursion ends facing the Sunset. With a fruit platter, cocktail and homemade local preparations.
