The plan

This trip has not happened yet. From December 17 to 28, 2026 the five of us fly to Tahiti, hop to Raiatea, and spend a week on a crewed sailing catamaran, with Christmas on board. We will post as we go when we have signal, and write recaps afterward.

Map of Raiatea and Taha'a, which share one lagoon, with Bora Bora to the north-west and Huahine to the east. A dashed line shows the hoped-for route from Raiatea to Taha'a to Bora Bora and back, with an optional dotted leg to Huahine. Tahiti is off the map to the south-east.
The hoped-for route. It is a plan, not a promise: the skipper and we will pick each day based on the wind. Coastline from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).

  • Raiatea
