The Marquesas Islands - Nuku Hiva - Ua Uka - Ua Uka - Hiva Oa

The Marquesas are a rugged and scenic chain of islands with jagged, cloud piercing mountain tops and deep verdant valleys... still primitive and breathtakingly beautiful.
We recommend the Marquesas for the adventure traveler only... this isolated volcanic chain of 14 islands is sparsely populated and not protected by coral reefs. Tourism is just beginning to develop and life in the Marquesas remains very similar to the life Gauguin discovered and enjoyed a century ago.

There are two types of cruises available in the Marquesas. Discovery of the Marquesas This cruise emphasizes exploration of the islands as well as immersion in the rich Polynesian culture. The most beautiful and historic sites in French Polynesia are to be found in the Marquesas. Your 8-day charter will include guided tours of Nuku Hiva, Ua Uka, Hiva Oa and Fatu Hiva. You will visit villages, archeological sites, tapa painters, wood carvers and the Gauguin Museum by 4-wheel drive... optional excursions available on horseback. The warmth and friendliness of local Marquesians is legendary.

Diving in the Marquesas In cooperation with the Marquesas Diving Center INTERPAC now represents an 8-day diving cruise in the Marquesas... these islands are now emerging as a world class diving destination, renown for their rich marine environment.
