Tall ship cruises, tall ship sailing, South Pacific cruises, Tahiti cruises aboard a tall ship, Cook Islands sailing, Vanuatu sailing, Easter Island,  Pitcairn Island, New Caledonia and New Zealand Tall Ship sailing cruises, Tonga tall ship sailing, Fiji sailing aboard a tall ship, Marquesas Islands sailing and holidays

Tall Ship adventure sailing cruises in the tropical islands of the South Pacific and New Zealand's Hauraki Gulf and the Bay of Islands.

The chance to experience seaborne travel from a bygone age is extremely rare. No previous experience is necessary to become part of the ship's crew for a voyage of a few days, weeks or even months.

You will have the opportunity to participate in sail training aboard an authentic square rigger. Alongside the professional crew you can stand watches, take the helm, handle lines, raise sail and let the routines of a sailing ship take you to a slower and more relaxed era.

Suitable for all ages and equally ideal for singles or couples seeking to relive the romantic age of the clipper ships.

CRUISING THE SOUTH PACIFIC ISLANDS

The South Pacific with its enchanting islands, colourful history, rich and ancient customs and warm hospitable people, stirs the mind and excites the imagination.

Remote, unspoiled atolls accessible only by sea is the stuff of escapists' dreams. We sail in the wake of Cook and Bougainville, harnessing the trade winds to transit the oceans, ensuring the best weather the whole year round. During April to November explore this untouched paradise with 11 to 21 night voyages through Polynesia and Melanesia.

You can choose the thrill and challenge of a deep ocean voyage, with excitement of blue water sailing and moonlit passage. With total involvement in the ship there's time to master the rig, become confident aloft or learn something of ocean navigation.

Or you can take a more leisurely island voyage, day sailing through an idyllic cruising paradise, still participating but at whatever level you enjoy.
