Paul Gauguin's New Horizons

Paul Gauguin Cruises, operator of the highest-rated and longest continually sailing luxury cruise ship in the South Pacific, the MS Paul Gauguin, has unveiled its 2013 itineraries for the cruise line’s second ship—the 90-guest MV Tere Moana—which will offer voyages in Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America.

 
In the Gauguin tradition, cruise fares for Moana are all-inclusive with gratuities, soft drinks, select wines and spirits included. Also, with superior dining options, a luxury spa and a staff of 54 serving just 90 guests, the experience onboard promises to be nothing short of first class.

 
After undergoing a multi-faceted renovation to be completed this December, the Moana will set sail under the Gauguin Cruises banner on December 29 on a gala seven-night Caribbean voyage with chairman Richard Bailey onboard.

The new ship - currently the chic Le Levant of Compagnie du Ponant - will sail 13 itineraries in 2013. Like the Gauguin, Moana will specialise in warm-weather destinations, with an emphasis on delivering unique voyages that larger ships cannot offer and exploring hidden ports throughout these regions. The ship will sail during the summer months in Europe and winter in the Caribbean and Latin America.
