Tahiti

 

DESERTED BEACH: warm waters of the South Pacific

Tahiti and her islands have names that evoke a seduction for honeymooners, romantics, adventurers, and vacationers looking for escape.

The island of Tahiti, towering over the ocean is crowned by a circle of majestic peaks.

Moorea soars magically out of the ocean in an explosion of green velvet exactly as you would imagine a South Seas island to be.

Bora Bora has a lagoon resembling an artist's palette of blues and greens, perfect white-sand beaches and the castle-like Mount Otemanu piercing the sky.

Huahine has a deep, crystal-clear lagoon that surrounds the two islands, with its lush forests, untamed landscape, and quaint villages it is one of Polynesia's best-kept secrets.

Taha'a, the flower-shaped island's simple beauty is charmed by soft mountain shapes with the rich aroma of vanilla lingering heavily in the air. It offers a glimpse of the traditional life of the Tahitians.
