Island Resorts in French Polynesia
Whilst Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora are the main stream tourist destinations, the other Society Islands of Huahine, Raiatea, Tahaa and Maupiti are more traditional with fewer resorts, fewer tourists and a more authentic South Seas experience, yet still easily accessible from the international airport. Other outer islands of French Polynesia include the 77 large but virtually flat atolls of the remote Tuamotu Group which are a scuba diving hotspot with its tiny islands dispersed over 6,000 sq-km of ocean to the east of Tahiti; and the even remoter Marquesas Group, mysterious high islands 500-km north east of Tahiti and seldom visited by holiday-makers.
The Society Islands is the main island group of French Polynesia and although easily accessible from the main island of Tahiti, accommodation is limited to pensions and the occasional beach resort.
