TAHITI
Tahiti, known as “The Queen of the
Pacific,” is the largest and most
populated island, and is the starting
point for your incredible Tahiti
Vacation. Your international flight
lands at Faa’a Airport in the capital
city of Papeete. Upon arrival, you will
receive a typical Tahitian display of
hospitality – a friendly welcome with
fragrant Tiare flowers and Tahitian
music
The Island of Tahiti is divided into a larger
part, known as Tahiti Nui (“Big Tahiti”) and a
smaller peninsula called Tahiti Iti (‘Little
Tahiti”). With lush green peaks reaching more
than 7,300 feet, its scenery is dramatic.
Cascading waterfalls and rippling pools in
the jungle-like interior provide a striking
contrast to the black- and white-sand
beaches and turquoise lagoons of the island’s
perimeter.
Home to the majority of the French
Polynesians you find them living a
cosmopolitan life in Papeete, surfing the
breaks around the islands and living a
traditional life in the more remote regions.

MOOREA
Moorea, “The Magical Island,”
was the inspiration for James
Michener’s mythical island of
Bali Hai, and has been the
locale for many motion
pictures, including Mutiny on
the Bounty and Love Affair. It is
just 11 miles across from Tahiti,
but seems a world away.
To fully appreciate the dramatic
appearance of this heart-shaped island,
you will want to rent a car or take a tour
that drives you to Belvedere Lookout,
which affords breathtaking views of
Moorea’s twin bays - Cook’s and
Opunohu Bay.
Moorea makes for a wonderful day trip
for Tahiti visitors – it’s just a 30-minute
catamaran ride from Tahiti to the dock
in Moorea. Even better though, is to
make Moorea your home for several
nights so you can fully enjoy and explore
all it has to offer.
