French Polynesia spans an ocean the size of Europe — 118 islands spread across five archipelagos, each one completely different from the last.
Turquoise lagoons in the Society Islands. Vast coral atolls in the Tuamotus where shark diving is world-renowned. Volcanic peaks in the Marquesas that rise straight from the Pacific, largely unchanged for centuries.
This is not a destination you see from a beach. It takes time, the right vessel, and the willingness to go further than most.
These images were captured during a recent extended charter aboard NORTHERN ESCAPE, offering a glimpse into what exploring French Polynesia by yacht can look like.
Following another successful season in the region, NORTHERN ESCAPE has a rare charter window available from 28 September to 28 October—one of the few remaining opportunities to experience French Polynesia aboard her this season.
Contact Ocean Alliance for availability or a sample itinerary.
This September, Bluegame returns to the Cannes Yachting Festival from 8–13 September with an impressive line-up, including the world premiere of the new BG64.
Alongside the BG64, visitors will have the opportunity to explore the BGX83, BGM75, BG74 and BGF45—each showcasing Bluegame`s distinctive approach to design, innovation and life on the water.
Joachim Howard, Country Manager of Sanlorenzo Australia, will be available throughout the show. To arrange a private viewing, please contact our team.
