Start with hotel or port pickup, then sail from Vaitape Pier during golden hour. Enjoy sparkling wine, snacks, island views, and often live ukulele music before visiting a private motu for guided stargazing. Guides such as Manu, Nono, Tonya, Cy, and Nicholson have led memorable outings, though weather can change the plan.

“Great trip! We had to take a hotel shuttle boat to the main island where we were picked up in a van and taken to the dock to catch our stargazing tour. Turned out to be a private tour as our party of 4 were the only stargazers that evening. We all enjoyed wine, prepared snacks, and live music as we watched the sunset and headed to a private island for an evening of stargazing. Our guide used a laser pointer and iPads to point out the constellations and told us stories about the early Polynesian travelers. Highly recommend if you like looking at stars.”
