TAHITI
|
| Often called "The Island of Love," Tahiti is the largest of the islands. Born in a series of volcanic upheavals nearly three million years ago, the island of Tahiti is a range of lushly forested peaks plunging deep into the sea. The island's interior is astounding; waterfalls cascade over sheer cliffs into rainforests below and rivers cut through dense valleys of giant ferns, wild fruit trees, and iridescent flowers. Most hotels are on the northwest coast of the island on a 6-mile stretch between Punaauia and Papeete. While a visit to the town itself doesn't constitute a true visit to the island, there are interesting things to do there - - shop at numerous boutiques or the open-air marketplace, visit one of several waterfront cafes and restaurants, or tour the Museum of Tahiti and Her Islands nearby. |

MOOREA
|
| Moorea is a stunning jewel of jagged peaks, rising majestically from a sapphire sea. Completely encircled by coral reef, the island was originally a volcano whose caldera has eroded over time, allowing the sea to flow deep into the interior to create Opunohu Bay and Cook's Bay. Life-style is slower than on Tahiti. Most hotels are located near the bays on the dramatic northern side of the island. |

BORA BORA
|
| The legendary island of Bora Bora is known throughout the world as one of the most romantic islands on the planet. A quiet, unspoiled haven. This emerald-green island is almost completely encircled by offshore islets and reefs, with only none narrow pass to the open sea, creating a magnificent lagoon of infinte depths and colors. An ideal way to appreciate Bora Bora is by bicycle or cruise around the lagoon by outrigger canoe. |

HUAHINE
|
| Huahine is a magical place. Huahine is actually two islands, Huahine-Nui and Huahine-Iti (Big and Little Huahine), each one crowned by a volcanic peak and separated only by this narrow isthmus. A coral reef surrounds the two-islands and their palm-fringed motus (off-shore islets), creating multi-hued lagoons. Huahine is nearly untouched by tourism, where locals still farm vanilla, taro root, melons and breadfruit, selling them on Market Day in the lovely port village of Fare. |

MANIHI
|
| Manihi is one of the prettiest atolls in the Tuamotu Archipelago. Located 312 miles northeast of Tahiti, this atoll is home to French Polynesia's famed black pearls, which are taken from undersea pearl farms sheltered within Manihi's 19-mile long lagoon. Manihi offers world-class diving and snorkeling, as well as excellent line and spear fishing. Visitors can see how the rare black pearl is created and harvested from the oyster. |

|
RANGIROA
|
| Rangiroa is a perfect example of what happnes to a volcano when it erodes over time. Its caldera submerged, creating a body of water surrounded by a dotted ring of sand and reef. Truly one of the world's greatest diving destinations, Rangiroa attracts both amateur and professional divers worldwide. |

RAIATEA & TAHAA
|
| Raiatea is second in size to Tahiti and is the administration and trading center for the Leeward Islands. To the ancestors of today's Tahitians, Raiatea was known as Sacred Havai'i, and was the center of royalty, religion, culture and history. Enclosed within the lagoon surrounding Raiatea and Tahaa, are beautiful beaches, coral gardens and the perfect location for sailing, deep sea fishing and scuba diving. A visit to the island of Tahaa will take you along the coastal road, past small villages, winding up mountain roads with views of the deep bays, white sand beaches and surrounding offshore islets. Tahaa has an unhurried pace combined with natural beauty and tranquility. |
