What to expect

I'll take you to meet some impressive marine life (rays, sharks, turtles). And enjoy the last glimmers of sunshine in an atmosphere that combines contemplation and discovery. On the programme, you can experience the culture of the great Polynesian sailors (accounts, legends and stories). And if the wind allows, I'll show you some sailing techniques. For this moment with you, I'll bring a cool box full of fruit, juices and local specialities.
