Reasons To
Visit French Polynesia

  • Art & Crafts

    Tahitian culture is more in evidence now that ever before and not just in the sophisticated dances and performance art but in the revival of symbolic tattoo art through which Polynesians use the dark strong colours to assert their ma'ohi identity.

  • Diving

    Rangiroa was described by Jacques Cousteau as the richest aquarium on the planet matched only by the other great Tuamotu lagoons on Tikehau, Manihi and Fakarava; now one of UNESCO's most valued biospheres.

  • Multi culture

    The islands of French Polynesia have long been a melting pot of migrant peoples who have made the most of the ecology and geology of this region of the South Pacific to create sophisticated cultures.

  • Pearls

    One of the most successful uses of light is visible in the pearl industry in which French Polynesia has become a world leader. The most sought after pearls are from the farms on Taha'a an in the Tuamotus and you may even get a chance to see the incredibly rare black pearls.

The Meridien Bora Bora has possibly the most spectacular location in French Polynesia's beautiful Society Islands and is one of the finest resorts in the South Pacific. Set on a pristine 'motu' facing the impressive Otemanu Mountain and Bora Bora's stunning lagoon the resort is nestled under sheltering palms on a spotless white sandy beach that surrounds a private lagoon teeming with marine life.

Spacious air conditioned beach bungalows all face the lagoon and have an authentic Polynesian feel with burnished hardwoods, louvered windows, thatched ceilings and soft toned fabrics. The over water bungalows stretch out over the lagoon and have large decking areas with ladders providing easy access to the water. A large part of the floor is glass which is perfect for looking into the turquoise water and spotting tropical fish.

The Meridien also has two restaurants, one of which is renowned as the best in Bora Bora and the other offering a more relaxed atmosphere beside the pool where you can enjoy a laid back evening meal with your feet in the sand.

Activities include snorkelling, windsurfing, swimming with turtles in the lagoon, kayaking and sailing, all of which are complimentary, making this a great choice for both couples and families alike.

There is a wide choice of optional activities that can be paid for locally, which offer unforgettable experiences in one of the world's true paradises!
