Where can I sail in Polynesia?
Tahiti 
Tahiti is the best area for sailing in Polynesia, in the chic French Society Islands. Sail in the lagoon at Bora Bora, one of the most beautiful islands in the world. Slip away beyond the reef and sail to Huahine. Visit the ruins of ancient temples and lunch in a tiny beachfront town reminiscent of a Conrad novel. Savour Polynesian cuisine on Raiatea, see the fire walkers on Tahaa, visit a vanilla plantation, hike in the mountains, swim in a blue lagoon. These islands are all within ˝ day’s sail, leaving you plenty of time to explore lagoons and beaches. Yachts and catamarans are based on the island of Raiatea (40 minutes flights from Tahiti).
