Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin cruises, based in French Polynesia, offer some of the most unique small-ship sailing experiences available.

M/S Paul Gauguin will whisk you away to the seas of Tahiti, French Polynesia, and the South Pacific in five star comfort and luxury. Designed specifically to glide through the shallow seas of the South Pacific, The Gauguin is the flagship of Paul Gauguin Cruises and a small-ship cruiser’s dream. She delivers travelers to intimate ports that larger ships simply can’t reach, all the while providing an onboard experience that is nothing short of luxurious.

Launched in 1998, the renowned, 5+-star m/s Paul Gauguin was built specifically to sail the shallow waters of the South Pacific. She is the longest continually operating year-round luxury cruise ship in this enchanting destination. She offers discerning travellers a luxury cruise experience tailored to the unparalleled wonders of this beautiful part of the world.

Amongst her luxurious attributes are spacious suites and staterooms (more than 70% with private balconies), an on-board water sports marina, a choice of three open-seating dining venues an extensive spa and an atmosphere aboard that radiates warmth, informality, and Polynesian flair. And with its unique itineraries and Polynesian spirit of hospitality, the crew of the m/s Paul Gauguin look forward to welcoming you aboard.

Enjoy an extension of the informal, relaxing environment which is typical of these islands on-board this ship which has been listed within Conde Nast Traveller’s the “top 20 Small Cruises Ships” again in 2016 for the 18th year in a row.
