Calm waters in Tahiti

[fivefoot4]

We are thinking of doing a cruise to Tahiti in July but I get seasick easily so Im wondering which months have the calmest seas? What are the seas like in July and August from experience?

Hey fivefoot4,

I've only sailed there earlier in the year, but I heard it should be fine in July. Rarotonga is the only part where you may experience rough seas, but then that happens throughout the year anyways. Come join our sailing 7/9/07! We have a really fun and lively roll call going on!!:D

It was the 9th July cruise I was looking at actually. Ill look up your roll call.

That would be great! We have another couple from down under on our roll call too! Most of us are on deck 7, including the entire aft! Come join the backyard party!!

We were on the Paul Gaugin in September and encountered one night of very rough seas on the way to Bora Bora. So, while the South Pacific is generally calm, there are times it can be quite rough, and the Paul Gaugin and Princess ships that sail there are small ships where you can feel the motion more.

Thanks 2manyplaces I think I need to check out the seasick remedies again. I took bonine last trip but even then I felt a bit light headed when we encountered a bit of rocking but it was a fairly calm sea otherwise.
