Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Want to try your hand at pleasure boating in the South Pacific? Then try the yacht charter in Moorea. Part of the French Polynesian archipelago, the island of Moorea appeals to yachtsmen in many ways. Because as well as offering excellent anchorages, this paradise island located a stone's throw from Tahiti is hauled in by the side of the boat's a remarkable natural environment that is perfect for water sports.
A paradise for water sports enthusiasts
Part of the Leeward Islands, the Polynesian island of Moorea is perfectly equipped to entertain water sports enthusiasts. With its coastline dotted with heavenly white sandy beaches hauled in by the side of the boat, bordered by a lush forest and its azure blue lagoon, Moorea is an invitation to the sweetness of idleness. Its authentic, wild and tranquil beaches easily find their place among the most beautiful beaches in Polynesia.
Don't hesitate to tour the relatively small island and set foot on the beach that suits you best. Although they are often attached to hotels, Moorea's beaches are still public. The most beautiful public beach on the island is Temae, a long, picture-postcard stretch of white sand hauled in by the side of the boat. Swimming and snorkeling are very popular on this beach. Sailing to the north of the island, you will come across the delightful Taahiamanu beach, a public beach that welcomes the local population every weekend. The latter offers a large shaded area with tall shafts of trees and a pleasant opportunity for family snorkeling.
Fortunately, your sunny days in Moorea will not be spent solely on the pitch of swimming in clear waters and snorkeling sessions. Yachtsmen can also take part in other group activities that are just as fun, such as scuba diving, outings in a pirogue or kayak and shark-feeding sessions, an activity not to be missed during yourday in Moorea. This supervised activity, which involves attracting sharks and rays by feeding them, is sure to get your adrenaline pumping!
Your days on land
on land, the activities are just as captivating and fun. Due to its small size, Moorea can be explored without a guide by bike, scooter or, for the more intrepid, on foot. If you appreciate panoramic views, a few peaks will offer you the best in terms of panorama, such as Mount Rotui, which offers a breathtaking view of the entire north of the lagoon.
Want to go behind the scenes of nature? Follow the 3 Cocotiers trail. You will penetrate into the heart of a luxuriant nature dominated by Mount Tohiea, the highest point of the island, proudly standing at 1,207 meters above sea level. On the way back, don't miss the panoramic view between sea and mountain from the 3 Cocos belvedere. The very sporty Col des 3 Pinus circuit invites you to wander through pineapple fields and mape forests that will immerse you in a tropical setting.
