Society Islands & The Tuamotus

Summary

Under the azure sky of the South Pacific, set off on a journey into the heart of the Society Islands and Tuamotu, Polynesian archipelagos in which dazzling blue lagoons and coral reefs form a real island paradise. From Tahiti, each port of call will reveal majestic islands and preserved atolls with immaculate beaches. In the Tuamotu Islands, Rangiroa invites you to discover its underwater treasures: multicoloured fish, gracious rays and harmless sharks dance between the lagoon and the ocean. In Fakarava, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the marine fauna comes to life in a fascinating ballet. The Society Islands will reveal themselves between tropical forests and volcanic landscapes: Huahine, a mysterious and wild island; Raiatea, the sacred cradle of Polynesian culture; and the motu Mahana, a private island with turquoise waters. Bora Bora and Moorea, with their enchanted lagoons and lush pitons, will encourage contemplation and moments of awe throughout your journey.

Papeete, Tahiti

Papeete will be your gateway to the tropical paradise of French Polynesia, where islands fringed with gorgeous beaches and turquoise ocean await to soothe the soul. This spirited city is the capital of French Polynesia, and serves as a superb base for onward exploration of Tahiti – an island of breathtaking landscapes and oceanic vistas. Wonderful lagoons of crisp, clear water beg to be snorkelled, stunning black beaches and blowholes pay tribute to the island's volcanic heritage, and lush green mountains beckon you inland on adventures, as you explore extraordinary Tahiti. Visit to relax inside picturesque stilted huts, which stand out over shimmering water, as you settle into the intoxicating rhythm of life, in this Polynesian paradise.

Huahine

Huahine is an island located among the Society Islands, in French Polynesia, an overseas territory of France in the South Pacific Ocean. It is part of the Leeward Islands group

Bora-Bora

Simply saying the name Bora Bora is usually enough to induce gasps of jealousy, as images of milky blue water, sparkling white beaches and casually leaning palm trees immediately spring to mind. The imagination doesn't lie, either, and if you visit, you’ll soon realise this island is every bit as gorgeous as you ever imagined. Thatched wooden huts stand out over shallow, sparkling seawater, with vivid fish swirling just below. Soak up the sun, scuba dive, or simply revel in the opulent luxury of one of the island's many magnificent resorts. If blissful inactivity doesn't appeal, then get active, and hike the greenery of the sharp Mount Pahia.

Moorea

Mo’orea is one of the Society Islands of the French Polynesia. Located in the South Pacific, it is considered a magical island thanks to its majestic volcanic mountains, set against warm lagoon waters and green meadows. It is an island that attracts visitors of all abilities wanting to explore both above and below the ocean waters.
