Moorea Moorea is a high island in French Polynesia, part of the Society Islands, 17 km (roughly 9mi) northwest of Tahiti. Because of its stunning scenery and accessibility to Papeete, Moorea is particularly popular as a honeymoon destination. The island vaguely resembles a fork, with its two nearly symmetrical bays opening to the north side of the island: Cook's (or Paopao) Bay and Oponohu Bay. Enjoy this one way domestic flight from Papeete to Moorea. The flight time is approximately 15 minutes. A private vehicle with driver will transfer you between the Moorea and the Airport. The Moorea Pearl Resort & Spa (4*) is seated on a vast stretch of white sand on Moorea, the sister island of Tahiti, near Cook's Bay. The resort consists of 95 rooms and bungalows, each offering air conditioning and sundecks. Tasteful Polynesian decor is used to highlight the sunny, relaxed environment. With two restaurants and a bar, the resort offers something for every guest. Try light dishes of seafood and snacks, or indulge in the gourmet creations of Chef Pascal Bionaz. Later, plan a session with a masseur at the resort's extensive spa. For the more daring sort, visit the on-site native Polynesian tattoo artist for a little souvenir from Moorea.

Day 5
Bora Bora Bora Bora has many memorable, one of a kind adventures to experience, a fantastic selection of water sports awaiting your arrival. If you're in the mood to just relax, there are many wonderful options for you as well. The most radical new sport to hit French Polynesia in the past 50 years has to be kiteboarding. The French call it Flysurfing, and it's also known as kitesurfing. It basically involves being pulled on a board similar to a surfboard with straps, by a powerful kite. The winds are excellent, and (for the most part), dependable, and there's a few decent spots to launch from shore. Lagoon swimming, jetskiing, and world class scuba diving to name a few of the water activities. Try some of the local or wonderful French cuisine that the island has to offer. Take a walk around the beautiful island. The trail system is good, and easily experienced in only a day or two of non-strenuous hiking. Overnight at Pearl Beach Resort & Spa (5*) (Pearl Combined). |
