Polynesia Aranui Cruise

​The Marquesas: A Mystical Heritage

​The Land of Men: Known as Fenua Enata, this archipelago of 12 islands is located 1,500 km from Tahiti. Recently UNESCO-listed, it is a world of dramatic landscapes—jagged cliffs, deep valleys, and raw volcanic beauty.

​A Living Legend: According to mythology, the islands represent the pillars of a divine house built by the gods. It is a land that inspired great artists and remains home to a proud, warrior culture with its own unique language.

​Beyond Tourism: Visiting the Marquesas isn't just a trip; it’s a profound emotional encounter with history and untamed nature

Your boat, a Unique Concept

​The Freighter Experience: More than a cruise ship, the Aranui 5 is a dual-purpose vessel.

It serves as a vital lifeline, delivering supplies to remote communities while hosting up to 230 guests.

​Authentic Comfort: The ship features 8 decks reflecting Polynesian heritage. Facilities include a panoramic Sky Bar, a swimming pool, expert-led conferences, and even an onboard tattoo parlor for full cultural immersion.

​The Journey: From luxury balcony suites to shared cabins, it offers a rare opportunity to witness the "real" Polynesia, following the rhythm of cargo operations and island life.
