The Marquesas Islands

Lying 750 miles northeast of Tahiti, these islands are wonderful for a 7-10 day yacht charter. All of the islands are within a 3-5 hour cruise from one another on your charter motor yacht, and include some of the world's most spectacular fishing and dive sites. In addition to the exotic yacht charter locale, the Marquesas Islands boast friendly and warm-hearted local people. Island guests are encouraged to discover their unique shops, often filled with beautiful, well-crafted wood and bone carvings.

A wide range of land based activities are available; from hiking through ancient Polynesian ruins, to visiting waterfalls up to 1,000 feet high on the main island of Nuku Hiva. Further south, on the island of Ua Pou, lie the most striking geological formations on the planet; undoubtedly the guests will be amazed. A trip to the famed artist, Paul Gauguin's grave on Hiva Oa is also a popular attraction.

Your yacht charter itinerary may also include anchoring in Hanga Haa at the foot of Taipnai. Here, you can gain a sense of what Herman Melville and Toby Green went through as they hid from their ship 'Acushnet', as described in Melville's book Typee. If desired, the guests can finish up the charter in the main anchorage of Taiohae Bay with a wonderful Marquesan feast, involving musicians, dancers, warriors and a huge variety of local foods. Charter a private yacht in Marquesas Islands and experience a mysterious ambience and warm welcome that has to be experienced to be understood!
