Now Accepting Reservations!

The Beginning of a New Adventure

Like ARANUI V, which will continue to serve the Marquesas Islands, ARANOA will also be a mixed passenger / freighter ship, equipped with the latest technology to limit its environmental impact. This unique model of inclusive tourism, which has made the company successful for 40 years, is particularly suited to the island territory of French Polynesia.

This project will help develop the Austral archipelago by providing new economic opportunities, fostering inter-island trade, and will help to promote its colourful landscapes and rich culture!

Itinerary

Sail away with Aranoa on a 13-day voyage to uncover the hidden gems of the Austral Islands.

A land of traditions, the Austral islands are renowned for their turquoise lagoons (Tubuai, Raivavae), fjord-like coastline (Rapa), lush tropical jungle, endemic birds (Rimatara), exquisite craftsmanship, farming activities and an authentic way of life. Here, time seems to slow down, offering visitors a unique immersion into an intimate and unspoiled Polynesia.

The itinerary also includes the iconic Moorea, Raiatea and its UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site, before culminating in the breathtaking beauty of Bora Bora.

Onboard Comfort

With 91 comfortable cabins, including 62 with private balconies, Aranoa can accommodate up to 198 passengers in an intimate and refined setting. Each cabin is equipped with the latest amenities to ensure a very enjoyable stay.

On board, enjoy two restaurants offering a variety of cuisine, two bars, a gym, a spa, and two jacuzzis with a sea view to relax in complete serenity.
