About Crewed Catamaran LAGOON 40
The Lagoon 40 is a purposeful cruising catamaran built for easy exploration of French Polynesia's archipelago. Twin hulls deliver stability and shallow-draft access to anchorages others cannot reach. Her design prioritises open-air living, with generous deck space and an elevated flybridge commanding 360-degree views of turquoise lagoons and volcanic peaks.
Four double cabins, each with private ensuite, sleep up to eight guests in quiet comfort. The main saloon features teak accents, expansive windows, and an open galley where your chef will prepare meals reflecting local ingredients and international technique. Throughout the yacht, ventilation and natural light create an airy, contemporary atmosphere that feels less like a cabin and more like an island retreat afloat.
Highlights
- •Four double cabins with private ensuite bathrooms accommodate groups or families in separate quarters
- •Flybridge and bow lounging areas perfect for morning coffee and sunset aperitifs without leaving the yacht
- •Shallow draft enables anchorage in protected lagoons and coves inaccessible to larger yachts
- •Professional crew includes skipper and chef; all food, wages, insurance, and laundry included in charter fee
The Charter Experience
Your professional skipper and crew craft each day around your preferences, whether that means dawn snorkeling in coral gardens, lunching on secluded white-sand beaches, or exploring the villages and culture of islands like Huahine, Raiatea, and Taha. The catamaran's shallow draft opens access to protected lagoons and hidden anchorages unreachable by deeper-hulled yachts. Sunsets are celebrated on deck with cold drinks and locally-inspired cuisine, whilst your crew handles navigation, provisioning, and all vessel operations. The rhythm becomes unhurried: morning swims, afternoon anchoring, evening stargazing from the net trampolines.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might begin in Bora Bora, where you explore the lagoon's outer reefs and sheltered anchorages, then sail south-west to Huahine for visits to traditional marae temples and local markets. Days three and four take you to Raiatea, French Polynesia's cultural heart, with opportunities to anchor off quiet motu islets. By week's end, Taha's lush valleys and modest anchorages provide a serene finale before returning to home waters, though your itinerary remains entirely flexible and responsive to weather, your mood, and the crew's local knowledge.
