Huahine is an overlooked paradise in French Polynesia.
For one thing, the island is, arguably, the most picturesque in all
of French Polynesia...
With steep mountains descending into protected
bays of azure blue and emerald green colors, the island
is also one of the more geographically diverse of the
Society Group.
Also known as "The Garden Island"
due to its abundance of lush green tropical foliage and
wild jungle-like scenery, Huahine is one of the more interesting of the Society
Islands to explore.
Huahine itself is actually
2 islands known as Huahine-Nui
and Huahine-Iti (Big
Huahine and little Huahine).
Interconnected by a
bridge, both islands
can be easily explored
in a day or two, making
this a travel destination
you will never forget.
There are many
things that make Huahine stand out among the
Society islands, but
perhaps the most treasured
one is the much saught
after idea of solitude
and quietness.
Similiar to its
cousins Raiatea and
Tahaa, Huahine is far
less touristed than
Moorea, Bora bora and
Tahiti! (and that's
a good thing) This island
is so relaxing and stress
free that many people
pick it as their favorite
Society Island after
traveling here just
once.
There's also an abundance of long and beautiful white
sandy beaches on Huahine... and the good news is that
on this island, most of them are easily accessable for
total quality beach and sun worshipping.
All these wonderful attributes and more make Huahine a fascinating world destination for you to explore. Take some quality time as you browse the pages and information
of our site and enjoy your stay.
