On the water requirements will be met during the cruise in Tahiti. Students who want to obtain Bareboat Charter Certification must charter at the Basic Coastal Cruising level at least three times before the cruise. There's plenty do do and see on the islands of Tahiti.
Snorkeling is always a popular activity on our bareboat cruises.
The coral reefs are spectacular as they rise from 80 feet or more to just a foot or two deep. Onshore there are van tours and rentals and cars and jeeps for rent. Remains of ancient Polynesian temples and other structures can be seen. Apart from the charter, we'll have enough time on the Island of Tahiti for a day visit to Moorea. 10 days saill ing April 21 - May 5, 2002.
