Tahiti Bareboat Yacht Charter

This is an article about a Tahiti bareboat charter. To see the main page for Tahiti yacht charters go here .

We arrive in Tahiti to the sounds of music wafting through the humid air and the scent of vanilla filling our nostrils. Beautiful locals Tahitians in bright shirts welcome each new arrival with a native Tiara flower to wear behind their ear. French Polynesia is thought of as a land of mystic charm, striking landscapes and welcoming people – an epitome of tropical paradise. Coming to a place with such a reputation, I always brace myself for disappointment as it would be difficult for anywhere to be quite so perfect. As we arrive however, the Pacific warmth infiltrates my senses and one feels the glimmer of hope that it could indeed be as magnificent as they say.

A short flight from Papette to Raiatea offers fantastic views from the left hand windows and a prelude to the Society Islands which we’re about to sail on our Lagoon 380 charter yacht. A Sunsail representative meets us at the airport donning freshly made lays. It’s a very short drive to the base and another Sunsail rep greets us and is keen to start the briefing and get us away. The briefing was very comprehensive and included full boat, inventory and a good chart briefing. The staff at the Sunsail base were very helpful and even helped us with a few extras including water and mossie repellent (two things you can never have too much of!)

Fortunately two of our group had arrived earlier and had already gone into Uturoa to provision for the week. In Tahiti, I’d generally recommend one does their own shopping to ensure you’re getting the freshest fruit and veggies. Also bring as much duty free as you can because Tahiti is ridiculously expensive and the local and imported wines are often corked…..or simply very ordinary and expensive. Most imported items are very expensive however if you stick to local produce, you can provision well at a reasonable price. December is part of the season of abundance and there’s plenty of delicious fresh fruit, veggies and fish. With the very well equipped galley onboard, our master chef and the fresh tropical produce, our meals onboard are destined to be nothing short of spectacular.

Day 1: We set sail to our first overnight anchorage at the Taravana Yacht Club in the South of Tahaa. This is a very easy and short sail from the base and perfect if you’re getting away at around midday. The Taravana Yacht Club is happy to allow boats to pick up a mooring provided they use the bar or restaurant facilities - otherwise there’s a charge.

In Tahiti it’s HOT and as soon as we were safely moored, we were straight over the side reveling in the refreshingly cool, clear water. The afternoon slipped by as we snorkeled, relaxed and caught up with old friends. At dusk, we ease into the tramps to enjoy sundowners under a moody Pacific sky sunset. The crescendo of local drums wafts from the local village ashore and there’s absolutely no doubt that we are somewhere totally romantic and exotic. The night ends as we’re gently rocked to sleep with the sound of water lapping against the hull and a quiet anticipation of the adventures to come.

Day 2: Our aim today is to see the best of Tahaa and that involves a circumnavigation. Whilst Bora Bora is the most famous of the Society Islands, Tahaa, Raiatea and Huahine are known to be the most beautiful and we’d like to see as much as possible. From very early, the sun is bright and hot in the sky and the water inside the lagoon is like glass. This lagoon is beautiful with Tahaa on one side and scattered motus on the other. The four small motus near Ilot Tautau provide our first glimpse of picture postcard perfect Tahiti. Lush tropical greens are surpassed in vitality only by the kaleidoscope of bright blues. These motus offer a shallow anchorage and an excellent snorkeling spot with a spattering of corals and sealife. One could easily whittle the day away enjoying this magnificent anchorage however with so much to see, we savor a lunch of fresh tuna and salad before continuing onto the Hibiscus Yacht Club in late afternoon. The moorings here are free for patrons of the bar or restaurant and the welcome we received was warm...the rums rather potent!

Day 3: Considering December is traditionally wet season, we’ve been enjoying unseasonable bright sunny days and we awake today to another searing day with clear blue skies and only a light northerly breeze. After heading ashore to stock up on a few provisions, we set sail around the south of Tahaa to the reef exit for Bora Bora. With little wind, the crossing takes around 4.5 hrs so upon arrival we head directly for the Bora Bora Yacht Club where we pulled up a free mooring. We enjoy a leisurely afternoon and another sumptuous dinner onboard. The night air is filled with the distant sound of drums, music and a messiah of local dogs and roosters.

Day 4: Today we explore the lagoon of Bora Bora. The mountainous landscape here is undeniably beautiful but no more so than Tahaa. The lagoon is certainly much busier and the tranquil beauty is altered slightly by the endless resorts and their overwater bungalows. The northeast of Bora Bora lagoon is scattered with shallow reefs and as a precaution, we had someone on ‘bomby’ watch for most of the afternoon to ensure the odd coral wasn’t going to rear up from out of nowhere.

We’ve now been onboard for a few days and this afternoon we’re ready to stretch our legs. The Motu Piti Aau in the South East of Bora Bora has a long magnificent beach and some basic walking tracks through tropical foliage to the beach on the outer side. After days of perfect weather and calm still lagoons, the raw wildness of the exposed sea is quite refreshing and we expend some energy with a long stroll along the coral beach.

With the intention to depart early tomorrow for Raiatea, we head back to the Bora Bora Yacht Club for another night on a secure mooring. The yacht club is very romantic with candlelit tables set up on the jetty over the lagoon – this is the ideal place for a quiet sunset cocktail.

Day 5: We awake again to virtually no wind so head off under power for Raiatea. We head for the Reef entrance on the far southern side. Once we’re inside the reef, we cruise past some absolutely beautiful motus and landscape to settle off I. Naonao – another picture perfect setting. It’s quite late by the time we arrive so we simply enjoy the vista with the intention of heading ashore tomorrow to explore.

Day 6 : First thing in the morning, we launch the tender and head ashore. We are greeted by hundreds of mosquitoes and the most interesting variety of live crabs and shell creatures we’re ever seen. Every shell in the sand was moving with the strength of a living creature inside. This island is private property and a young local boy in an outrigger appeared from nowhere (or Raiatea perhaps) immediately. We greeted him with warm ‘hellos’ and in return, we got a small nod. As we walked down the beach he shadowed us in his outrigger, saying nothing but staying put only metres away. We asked if we were allowed to walk along the beach and swim and we got another nod but he stuck with us like a shadow. When we returned to the boat, our shadow followed us and sat off the stern of the boat for at least another 20 mins, still saying nothing. Perhaps he wanted to come onboard? Perhaps he was simply fascinated we the boat or we us? Finally he turned away and paddled back towards Raiatea until he was but a speck on the horizon.

We jumped back in the tender with our snorkeling gear and headed back in. The area between the motu and the reef is supposed to be a good snorkeling spot and even from the shore we could see enough coral to warrant a closer look. The water was a little murky but there was plenty of coral, colorful schools of small fish and even a reef shark. I’m glad the tender was close as although the reef sharks rarely pay much attention to humans, the sight of it was still enough to get the little heart racing!

Back onboard we cruise towards the east part of the lagoon with a course set for Baie Faaroa. This is the site of the old Sunsail base and they still have free moorings there for their boats. We were also told that the river at the end of the bay is the site of the Botanical gardens. As we enjoy yet another delicious lunch, it begins to rain….pour infact, in the way only tropical storms ever do. We’re keen to make the most of it and jump out on deck with our soap and shampoo. These downpours never last long but this was long enough and with this being our last full day, we’re keen to make the most of it - The Botanical Gardens await and after all, a little water never hurt anyone.

We set off up the river not sure what to expect. The mouth of the river is broad; brown and murky with rain. We feel like we’re on a total adventure and could easily have been heading up the Mekong! As we get deeper down the river, the most amazing plants and flowers start appearing on the banks. There are enormous fragrant red flowers, bright pinks and pale yellows. There are huge horny green fruits, bananas, mangoes and paw paws. As with everything else in Tahiti, the Botanical Gardens are totally wild and exotic and well worth a kayak or tender ride up the river to explore.

Back at the boat, we continued around the lagoon towards our nighttime mooring in Baie Tepua. We enjoy a few local beers underway as we take in the endless spectacle of the scenery – the lush green mountains, fresh waterfalls and the clear blue lagoon dotted with fisherman’s huts. A small family of dolphins even come to wave us goodbye.

Day 7: We awake and take a short cruise back to the base. Our adventure has come to an end too soon and nobody is ready to go home just yet. French Polynesia is a remarkable place with an essence that creeps into your soul. The first few days are an adjustment for anyone….especially city folk who are used to activity and entertainment however by Day 4 & 5 the adjustment is complete and by Day 6, one is just beginning to fully appreciate the relaxed pace of the islands. When we return to Tahiti, as no doubt we will, we will be going for longer and intend to include Huahine in our explorations. After Tahaa and Raiatea, it’s hard to imagine it can get much better but we’ve heard that Huahine is one of the most beautiful islands and we intend to find out!

We would like to extend thanks to Sunsail who provided us with our boat.

Bareboating in Bora Bora

You are here, error message.

The allure of Bora Bora, and Tahiti in general, is undoubtedly the crystal clear, calm ocean that surrounds these tiny island nations. Spectacularly beautiful Bora Bora is the best known of several idyllic islands that make up Tahiti, French Polynesia.

Bora Bora Yacht Club, accessible by the only channel entering the sheltered lagoon surrounding the island is a must-do for all bareboaters. It’s a great place to enjoy local cuisine, watch a sunset and plan your adventure.

While you’re on Bora Bora, make sure you book a local dive operator and dive among manta rays and tropical fish. There are various diving options suitable for the beginner or experienced diver and, with pristine visibility, it’s no wonder this region is on the bucket list for many holidaymakers. Shark dives and feeding experiences are also highly popular.

Raiatea Island is where you will most likely start and end your charter, in the picturesque harbour of Marina Apooiti. This island is the second largest in French Polynesia and is a fertile, agricultural hub, with views of lush fruit and spice plantations, waterfalls and a lagoon teeming with marine life.

You may also want to lay anchor at Motu Tau Tau, an islet with pristine white-sand beaches and palms. Explore the lagoon with views across to Tahaa and witness the colourful marine life and Distichopora coral below.

Your final must-see destination is Tahaa, and the Taravana Yacht Club. Just a short sail from Raiatea, Tahaa is locally known as ‘Vanilla Island’, in honour of the sweet aroma of vanilla that wafts from the surrounding vanilla plantations.

After lunch at the Taravana Yacht Club, visit the nearby turtle reserve sanctuary, where you can see these creatures in their natural habitat. You’ll be guaranteed some beautiful images!

Tahiti is a destination for romantics and adventure seekers alike. It’s a favourite amongst honeymooners and couples and is famous for its vibrant tropical sunsets and pristine eco-system.

Yacht Charter in Raiatea

The Leeward islands around Tahiti, most famous for beautiful Bora Bora, is a pure exotic sailing mecca. Cosy anchorages with surrounding reefs and stunning mountains that rise to the sky are part of what makes Raiatea, Tahiti and French Polynesia a sailors' paradise.

• Sailing in the exotic waters of the South Pacific
• Beautiful Bora Bora
• Picturesque anchorages - the smell of vanilla on Tahaa
• Snorkelling and diving on the many reefs
• Archaeological sites in Raiatea
• Good restaurants and interesting shops

Located halfway in the Pacific Ocean between South America and Australia, French Polynesia is made up of 118 islands, spread out over an area the size of Europe. Papeete is Tahiti's capital. Among the Society Islands are Bora Bora, Raiatea, Tahaa and Huahine that make up the jewels on a sailing holiday in Tahiti. Mountainous heights rise from the sea, and the many reefs are home to sea turtles, sharks, dolphins, porpoises, colourful hard/soft coral and over 500 species of fish - which makes the Society Islands one of the world's best spots for snorkelling and diving. Resorts, water sports, trips to the islands, archaeological sites and good food are just some of the many pleasures of a sailing vacation in Tahiti.

Sailing at Raiatea

A yacht charter in Raiatea offers balmy trade winds from the east, which usually has a strength of between 15-20 knots year round - this almost guarantees relaxing sailing in the calm water behind the reefs, as well as more challenging passages on open water. Behind the reefs, navigation is easy and going from one marker to the other, although it is important to keep a close eye on the chart - just as it is important to plot the stretches of longer passages between islands. The tidal range is less than a foot and is negligible - which also means that the current is often weak, except in narrow passages.

A sailing vacation in Tahiti is possible for sailors with basic skills in coastal navigation. Beauty and the area's unique character attracts both experienced and inexperienced sailors time and time again.

Although Bora Bora, Raiatea, Tahaa and Huahine are neighbours, each island has a slightly different mood. Of course, the beauty of the South Pacific is a common denominator, like the exquisite reefs, islets (motus) and beaches - but where one island committed to the chic and modern, on the other primarily nature prevails. Other islands are known for their local crafts and ancient archaeological Polynesian temples. Together, they offer attractions for all visitors - and ensures that a sailing holiday in Tahiti will be a memorable sailing holiday for all.

NV obtains new photos and videos of the elimination of traitorous ex-MP Ilya Kyva near Moscow

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

Photos and videos of the elimination of pro-Russian ex-MP Ilya Kyva in a Moscow suburb were obtained by NV from sources in Ukraine’s SBU Security Service on Dec. 11.

This special operation was meticulously planned and successfully executed, the SBU informant confirmed.

In one imgae, Kyva's lifeless body can be seen in the snow surrounded by bloodstains. The location where “deserved punishment awaited the traitor” is near the place that Kyva filmed many anti-Ukrainian videos, sources say.

Kyva was a high-priority target, SBU said. His daily routines, movements, and habits were extensively studied in the operation. Despite strong security, the SBU managed to eliminate him just outside Moscow.

“This [Kyva’s elimination] serves as a signal to all traitors and military criminals who have sided with the enemy. Remember: Russia will not protect you. Death is the only prospect awaiting enemies of Ukraine,” SBU Chief Vasyl Malyuk said.

Ukraine’s SBU eliminated Kyva in a special operation in Moscow Oblast on Dec. 6, said NV sources in the intelligence service.

Kyva's “bloodied body”, discovered with a shot through the head, was found in the park of an elite club hotel in the Moscow region on Dec.6, Russian propaganda Telegram channels reported.

Kyva was shot with an unidentified firearm and died from the injuries on the scene, the Russian Investigative Committee claimed.

Kyva had fled to Spain ahead of Russia’s full-scale invasion. He then appeared in Russian propaganda broadcasts in Moscow, actively spreading lies about Ukraine. Kyva also sought “political asylum” and citizenship from the enemy aggressor.

The Ukrainian parliament stripped Kyva of his MP status in March 2022, charging him with treason. He was additionally charged with publicly calling for a violent change in the constitutional order and propaganda on behalf of the aggressor state in Aug. 2023.

Strange Glow Over Moscow Skies Triggers Panic as Explosions Reported

B right flashes lit up the night sky in southern Moscow in the early hours of Thursday morning, new footage appears to show, following reports of an explosion at an electrical substation on the outskirts of the city.

Video snippets circulating on Russian-language Telegram channels show a series of flashes on the horizon of a cloudy night sky, momentarily turning the sky a number of different colors. In a clip shared by Russian outlet MSK1.ru, smoke can be seen rising from a building during the flashes lighting up the scene.

Newsweek was unable to independently verify the details of the video clips, including when and where it was filmed. The Russian Ministry of Emergency situations has been contacted via email.

Several Russian Telegram accounts said early on Thursday that residents of southern Moscow reported an explosion and a fire breaking out at an electrical substation in the Leninsky district, southeast of central Moscow.

Local authorities in the Leninsky district told Russian outlet RBC that the explosion had happened in the village of Molokovo. "All vital facilities are operating as normal," Leninsky district officials told the outlet.

The incident at the substation in Molokovo took place just before 2 a.m. local time, MSK1.ru reported.

Messages published by the ASTRA Telegram account, run by independent Russian journalists, appear to show residents close to the substation panicking as they question the bright flashes in the sky. One local resident describes seeing the bright light before losing access to electricity, with another calling the incident a "nightmare."

More than 10 villages and towns in the southeast of Moscow lost access to electricity, the ASTRA Telegram account also reported. The town of Lytkarino to the southeast of Moscow, lost electricity, wrote the eastern European-based independent outlet, Meduza.

Outages were reported in the southern Domodedovo area of the city, according to another Russian outlet, as well as power failures in western Moscow. Electricity was then restored to the areas, the Strana.ua outlet reported.

The cause of the reported explosion is not known. A Telegram account aggregating news for the Lytkarino area described the incident as "an ordinary accident at a substation."

The MSK1.ru outlet quoted a local resident who speculated that a drone may have been responsible for the explosion, but no other Russian source reported this as a possible cause.

Ukraine has repeatedly targeted Moscow with long-range aerial drones in recent months, including a dramatic wave of strikes in late May.

On Sunday, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the region's air defense systems had intercepted an aerial drone over the city of Elektrostal, to the east of Moscow. No damage or casualties were reported, he said.

The previous day, Russian air defenses detected and shot down another drone flying over the Bogorodsky district, northeast of central Moscow, Sobyanin said.

There is currently no evidence that an aerial drone was responsible for the reported overnight explosion at the electrical substation in southern Moscow.
