A vacation in Tahiti doesn’t mean you have to be confined to the beaches the whole duration. Although that’s totally fine you want to, you’d missing out on all the other exciting adventures and things to do. Here’s your ultimate guide to the top bucket-list activities for your trip to Tahiti.
* Overwater bungalows
It wouldn’t be a trip to Tahiti without at least a glimpse of an overwater bungalow. French Polynesia is famous for these idyllic ocean huts, particularly in Moorea and Bora Bora. Worried about the cost? Try these tips to save money.
* Three Waterfalls
Tahiti is surrounded by beautiful waterfalls, often requiring a trek through the lush rainforest before a dip into the rockpool at the bottom of the falls to cool off. The Three Waterfalls, known locally as Les Trois Cascades or the Faarumai Waterfalls, are a series of falls on the northeastern part of Tahiti Nui.
* La Plage de Maui
La Plage de Maui, or Maui’s Beach, takes its name from Hawaii. It’s one of the only white sand beaches on Tahiti Nui, lying on the island’s southern coast. The nearby lagoon is ideal for snorkelling and swimming and soaking up the French Polynesia atmosphere. Don’t forget to grab a snack at the beach’s snack bar.
* Natural aquarium
The Huahine Natural Aquarium takes you up close and personal with the beautiful marine life of the Pacific Ocean, in the shallow waters of the lagoon. Watch from the platform or dive into the water to get a closer look. Otherwise, head to the Intercontinental’s Lagoonarium in the middle of the resort.
* Museum of Tahiti and Her Islands
Discover Tahiti’s unique history at the Museum of Tahiti and Her Islands, especially its Polynesian heritage. The museum is divided into different sections including anthropology, habitations and artefacts, social and religious life as well as general history.
