Just northwest of Tahiti, Moorea Island is an idyllic paradise where every type of traveller will find something they enjoy – be that lounging in the sunshine, exploring the vibrant rainforests, or tucking into some flavourful local food. Among the most strikingly beautiful islands in French Polynesia, this warm and welcoming island boasts an interesting topography. Not only will you have the chance to admire eight mountain peaks, something that gives Moorea a distinctly rugged appearance from afar, but the island is also home to two symmetrical bays. These bays make this destination the perfect place to enjoy some watersports; although, you’ll also find that the laid-back atmosphere here makes it the ideal place to lounge about in the sunshine. Heading further inland, if you’re looking for views, you’ll find several hiking routes worth taking advantage of. With numerous vantage points, you’ll never be too far away from a jaw-dropping view of the island. From above, the island itself loosely resembles a heart, and you’ll have a hard time not falling in love with Moorea when you spend some time here.

Sunken Tiki Garden
Just off the coast of Moorea, in the clear shallow waters around Papetoai, you’ll find an interesting collection of tiki sculptures – each of which stands between 1.5 metres and 2 metres tall. Created and placed by a local artist in 1998, as a tribute to the Polynesians who were obliged by missionaries to cast their religious symbols into the sea, this is a fascinating sight and one that highlights an important part of Polynesian culture and history. You can venture out and find these yourself, as they’re not far from the coast, but embarking on a guided tour will make that feat a lot easier.
