French Polynesia & Pacific

Remote and renowned, French Polynesia and the Pacific Islands are perhaps the world’s most alluring destination. Stretching from Micronesia in the north to Polynesia in the east and Melanesia in the west, the region covers over 115,000 sq mi (300,000 km²) and is made up of almost 40,000 islands. To say that the area is vast is no understatement.

Silversea Expeditions’ small ship cruises take you to the beating heart of these almost inaccessible lands. Travel in all-inclusive luxury and get to know a region brimming with diversity. Accompanied by a team of expert guides, you’ll be diving into much more than the crystalline waters that have made French Polynesia and the Pacific Islands so famous.

Go beyond the tourist trail and discover the patchwork of culture, cuisine and customs that make each island so unique. If not now, then when?

On Expedition cruises, Zodiac® boats are used almost every day to access parts of the destination. Additionally, on several occasions, it is only possible to embark and disembark the ship by Zodiac®.
