Mangareva, Gambier Islands

To see discounted cruises that visit or depart from this port, use the Find a Bargain box on the left.

Mountainous Mangareva is home to a remarkable cathedral with a stunning mother-of-pearl alter. Built under the malevolent order of a tyrannical priest, this church cost the lives of many islanders. Today Mangareva is much more peaceful. Activities may include nature walks or snorkeling and diving in the surrounding reef with its dramatic coral formations. Mangareva is also unofficially known as the best place in the world to buy black pearls, so hone your bargaining skills and prepare to be dazzled.
