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.

  • Overwater bungalows

    For most people an overwater bungalow set in a turquoise lagoon is the essence of French Polynesia and the reason to travel thousands of kilomtres round the world for the ultimate romantic holiday.

  • 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.

Vahine Island

Taha'a

Vahine Island is paradise made perfect. With just nine bungalows, only a maximum of 18 guests will ever be on the island at any one time.

The six traditional beach bungalows are carefully spaced around the perimeter of the island, leaving guests with the feeling of complete privacy and isolation, with just three further bungalows perched over the lagoon.

The tiny island restaurant serves up wonderful cuisine, including fresh lobster, and the staff are on hand should you wish to arrange activities or day trips. The true joy of Vahine is the absolute solitude in such an exquisite setting.
