Captivating Tahiti and her islands cover over two million square miles of the South Pacific Ocean and are comprised of five great archipelagos with 118 islands. Early explorers to these islands thought they had found paradise on earth, when they landed on these picture-perfect islands. Today's travellers are no less impressed by the extensive beauty of one of nature's finest playgrounds.
Tahiti offers enchanting volcanic mountain peaks clothed in lush tropical vegetation and exotic flowering plants, vibrant coral reefs, warm and enticing waters, white sand beaches and stunning turquoise lagoons. Added to this overall experience, is the warm hospitality provided by friendly locals, native delicacies, bustling markets, enticing boutiques, fine restaurants, nightlife and an extensive selection of exotic cocktails all combining to offer you one of the most sensory overloaded holidays.
One of the best features of Tahiti is that it has remained one of the few island escapes not to be overrun with tourists and visitors are still able to freely holiday amongst the locals, possibly tucking a tiare (national fragrant white flower) behind your ear, packing your pareu (sarong) and swimsuit and heading off to your own piece of Polynesian paradise.
