Brent Mishler has been a professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at UC Berkeley since 1993, where he teaches about island biology, plant diversity, evolution, and phylogenetic analysis. He is a professor in the popular “Biology and Geomorphology of Tropical Islands” course, where undergraduates spend the semester at the UC Berkeley Gump Station on Moorea in French Polynesia. He currently has research projects going on in Australia, the South Pacific,

South Africa, and South America. He is thus a generalist in field biology, with extensive knowledge about many kinds of organisms, tropical and temperate. He is also Director of the University and Jepson Herbaria on the Cal campus, a natural history museum devoted to plants of all types, and with research programs spanning the globe (http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu). One personal research specialty of his are mosses, plants that are small in stature but big in ecological importance and research interest, especially for studying desiccation-tolerance. He is also interested in more general topics involving the theoretical basis of systematic and evolutionary biology, such as the nature of species. He has been heavily involved in developing electronic resources to present taxonomic and distributional information to the public, and applications of these to conservation concerns. Cal lecturer’s participation cannot be guaranteed and is contingent on a minimum number of travelers.Tour Highlights:• Join us for a uniquely designed nine-night voyage to the idyllic islands and motus of French Polynesia.• Sail for seven nights aboard the Five-Star Wind Spirit featuring just 74 Staterooms, all with an ocean view.• This exceptional itinerary also includes two nights (air schedules permitting) in the Five-Star

Pacific Ocean

Feel the gentle tropical breezes along Bora Bora, arguably the most beautiful island in French Polynesia.

Pape’ete, Tahiti, Society IslandsPape’ete is the spirited capital of French Polynesia, framed by a seductive backdrop of forest-clad peaks. Tahiti’s quintessential South Pacific port is infused with a vibrant blend of Tahitian, French and Chinese cultural traditions. Tahiti’s stunning West Coast is historically significant, notably the sacred ’Ārahurahu site—French Polynesia’s only fully restored marae (ceremonial site)—and the beautifully landscaped Spring Garden of Vaipahi, which showcases 75 plant species, including precious māpē (Tahitian chestnut). Crystal-clear freshwater pools and fern-veiled caves represent Mara’a Grotto. The name Pape’ete translates to “water basket,” referencing a time in the island’s history when Tahitians came here to fill their calabashes (made from gourds) with fresh water. Tahiti’s East Coast is the former home of American author James Norman Hall, best known for Mutiny on the Bounty. Point Venus on the north side of Tahiti was named for the Fort Venus observatory established by Captain James Cook in 1769.

Mo’oreaRevered by Captain James Cook, the heart-shaped island of Mo’orea inspired Herman Melville’s novel Omoo, James Michener’s classic Tales of the South Pacific and the song “Bali Ha’i.” Admire this spectacular landscape of ancient volcanic peaks, lush valleys and emerald lagoons.

From renowned Belvedere Point, marvel at an unforgettable view of the iconic rocky spur of Mount Rotu’i and the sparkling waters of Cook and ’Opunohu Bays. Mystical stone marae evoke Mo’orea’s French Polynesian heritage, while European churches underscore its role as a center for 19th-century missionary activity. Contemporary islanders continue the traditions of their forebears, farming pineapples and papayas and crafting indigenous art from seashells and exotic wood amid Mo’orea’s vibrant blue lagoon.

Enjoy stunning panoramas along this legendary South Seas idyll featuring birds of paradise, verdant hibiscus gardens and houses painted in pastel hues.

Ra’iateaRa’iatea, which translates to “faraway heaven,” served as the political and spiritual heart of the Society Islands in the precolonial era. Exalted as French Polynesia’s most sacred island and considered the ancestral home of the Māori, Ra’iatea is the legendary birthplace of ’Oro, god of war and fertility. The UNESCO World Heritage site of Taputapuātea is a well-preserved marae complex representing the intersection of the living and ancestral worlds. Experience the “ash-blue sky alive with stars” that Impressionist Henri Matisse so memorably described as you cruise along this second largest of the Society Islands.

Taha’a Taha’a is framed by the profile of Mount Ohiri, named for Hiro, Polynesian god of sailors and thieves. Today, the world’s most flavorful vanilla beans and the region’s distinctive black pearl oysters provide the islanders’ livelihoods. Savor sweet aromas wafting down from the island’s many vanilla farms on this captivating island. Enjoy views of motu (coral outlets) with pristine white sand beaches and overwater bungalows along tranquil cerulean waters. Includes a BBQ lunch on the private Motu Mahaea.

See the glittering ring of tiny motus with white sand beaches surrounding the seldom‑visited island of Taha’a, a serenity awash with the soothing aroma of vanilla wafting from secluded plantations.

Hilton Mo’orea Lagoon Resort & Spa

Bora BoraThe proverbial vision of paradise, Bora Bora’s basalt peaks cloaked in thick tropical forest rise from sparkling turquoise waters. On the shores of picturesque Fa’anui Bay, see the 15th-century marae of Fare Opu, adorned with petroglyphs of turtles, a sacred creature in French Polynesia. Bunkers constructed by American soldiers during World War II, when the main island served as a military supply base in the South Pacific under the name “Operation Bobcat” remain here. In the island’s forested interior, local customs and traditions—including the Tahitian art of dyeing pareos (wrap-around garments)—are still practiced in the shadow of Mount Otemanu, Bora Bora’s highest peak. A catamaran departure from the ship for a Tahitian inspired dinner on the private Motu Tapu will be provided.

HuahineIdyllic Huahine consists of two islands—Huahine-Nui and Huahine-Iti, or “big”and “small,” respectively—separated by a deep blue bay and ringed by a coral atoll. Just above Maeva, Mata’irea Hill preserves the greatest concentration of archaeological sites in French Polynesia. Enjoy incredible snorkeling opportunities in the pristine, sparkling waters of French Polynesia.

Extend your sojourn in French Polynesia for two nights and stay in the deluxe Hilton Mo’orea Lagoon Resort & Spa. Enjoy magnificent sunrises and sunsets from your spacious beachfront or overwater bungalow (choose from two categories). Observe abundant, colorful marine life on a reef excursion, experience the exotic fusion of fresh local seafood inflected with French Polynesian flavors and enjoy the hotel’s overwater Toatea Bar, magnificent views, turquoise lagoons and wide array of watersports. This option includes accommodations, breakfast daily and round-trip ferry between Tahiti and Mo’orea.The Post-Program Option is at additional cost. Details will be provided with your reservation confirmation.

Post-Program Option

Opt to see the only operational lighthouse on Tahiti, guarding Point Venus, the island’s northernmost point.

Delight in breathtaking scenery in Ra’iatea, which translates to “faraway heaven.” Considered the cultural cradle of French Polynesia, the island’s verdant green mountains rise to the peak of the majestic Mount Temehani.

The Lure of the

South Pacific

The turquoise waters, wind-sculpted peaks and white-sand beaches of French Polynesia have captivated visitors for centuries. A dreamscape long before explorers Captain James Cook, Samuel Wallis and Louis de Bougainville fell under their spell in the 1700s, this fabled earthly paradise was among the last places in the world to be settled by humans. Today, Tahitian folklore traditions and mythology are entwined with the legacy of Mā’ohi ancestors, ancient Samoan mariners and European explorers who used the stars, sun, tides and flight patterns of birds to navigate the Pacific Ocean to these idyllic shores. Seared into the collective consciousness by the paintings of post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, this fantasia of 118 islands and atolls remains steeped in the legends of a polytheistic society. The French Polynesian reverence for nature coexists with time-honored agrarian traditions while the intersection of the material and spirit world is revealed in esoteric marae (ceremonial sites). Extolled for their mesmerizing landscapes and rich cultural traditions, the mystical pull of these serene isles is impossible to resist.
