Paul Gauguin Cruises will host its “Moana Explorer Program” for younger guests and their families on 21 dedicated summer and holiday sailings in 2023 and 2024. Geared towards youngsters aged seven to 15, the complimentary program is offered in collaboration with Te mana o te moana, a South Pacific marine education and conservation foundation. It is designed to engage children with hands-on, interactive activities both onboard and ashore.
From visiting a sea turtle care center to playing real-life beach “Survivor” games, hiking volcanic mountains, and snorkeling in lagoons, the program offers a range of activities for children. Depending on the itinerary, the youngsters might explore underwater life, conduct water experiments, create natural jewelry, go on a treasure hunt, learn about Tahitian culture, discover island legends and geology, design a Polynesian tattoo, and more.
The “Moana Explorer Program” is available on the following summer and holiday voyages in 2023 and 2024:
- Seven-night “Tahiti & the Society Islands” – June 10, June 17, June 24, July 22, and August 26 (2023); June 22 and July 27 (2024)
