Taha'a

Le Taha'a Island Resort & Spa is located on a secluded motu (islet) off the island of Taha'a. Of the three islands we visited in French Polynesia, this one felt the most private and unspoilt. 

Right next to the resort is a shallow coral garden where you can drift snorkel between two motus. On the main island there are Tahitian vanilla beans and black pearl farms. Off to the distance you can see Bora Bora, our final destination in French Polynesia. A ten-minute helicopter ride took us directly from Le Teha'a to our next resort, the Four Seasons Bora Bora.

Moorea

Nearly one year ago we travelled to French Polynesia for our wedding and honeymoon. The first island we visited was Moorea. It is only a seven-minute flight from Tahiti, the largest island in the country.

Moorea is  known for its mountainous interior so we decided to do an ATV tour in order to see the many landmarks, including Belvedere's Lookout, Opunohu and Cook's Bay and an ancient Polynesian temple. The rest of our time was spent snorkelling just off the balcony of our overwater bungalow.
