Moorea lies just across the water from Tahiti, its mountainous interior cut by deep valleys and framed by a bright lagoon. Cook’s Bay and Opunohu Bay reach beneath steep volcanic ridges.
Mountain and lagoon
Snorkelling, boating and paddleboarding can be balanced with hikes, viewpoints and inland exploration. The contrast between water and rugged interior is what gives Moorea its particular appeal.
Close to Tahiti, distinctly its own
Regular connections make Moorea easy to combine with Tahiti without sacrificing a sense of escape. It works equally well as a relaxed first island or as part of a longer French Polynesian itinerary.
