What makes French Polynesia so special for honeymooners
To travel to French Polynesia is to get away from the world and enter an environment where everything happens calmly and harmoniously. The tropical islands maintain unspoiled landscapes, with crystal-clear lagoons ideal for swimming, snorkeling or simply relaxing. The local culture is welcoming and authentic, which makes the experience even more human and memorable.
French Polynesia's ideal honeymoon islands
Bora Bora
Known for its intense lagoons and iconic overwater bungalows, Bora Bora is probably the island most associated with honeymoons in the region. It is a destination clearly geared towards absolute relaxation, with a focus on picturesque scenery and personalized services.
Moorea
Greener and more mountainous, Moorea offers dramatic landscapes, with peaks, bays and lush vegetation. It's perfect for those looking to balance impressive interviews, nature activities and tranquillity.
Tahiti
Tahiti is the gateway to French Polynesia and has a good range of accommodation, beaches and local culture. It works very well for starting or ending a trip, combining some urban life with beach and market moments.
Rangiroa
Rangiroa is a paradise for those who enjoy the sea and marine life, with reefs and a more secluded atmosphere. It is an excellent option for couples who value authenticity, silence and direct contact with the ocean.
Tips for planning your honeymoon in French Polynesia
