Pearls of the Pacific: Polynesian Idylls
May be combined with Pearls of the Pacific: Line Islands, Hawaii to Tahiti
Summary
Polynesia is the perfect blend of tiny, uninhabited atolls and the iconic islands of paradise-seekers. The waters are warm and clear for snorkeling and the southern hemisphere spring will bring dry breezes to accompany our nature walks through lush forests. We'll visit the Gambier Islands, the most remote island chain in French Polynesia, and Pitcairn Island, famous for the HMS Bounty mutineers who settled there.
