Designed specifically for the tranquil shallow waters of the South Pacific, MS Paul Gauguin is a dream for those in search of an intimate ‘small ship’ cruising experience. The flagship of Paul Gauguin Cruises takes guests to intimate ports inaccessible to larger cruise ships, all while providing an enviable and luxurious onboard experience.

Guests aboard can enjoy spacious suites and staterooms, many with private balconies, an onboard water sports marina, three dining venues, an extensive spa, and five-star service. Life onboard also reflects the beauty and rich cultural heritage of the islands she calls upon, with a warm, friendly feel, informal setting, and even a beloved troupe of local Tahitians for cruise staff, entertainers, and storytellers.
