French Polynesia鈥檚 archipelagos rise above pristine curves of coral and turquoise lagoons, surrounded by the cobalt-blue waters of the South Pacific. Our specialists have explored tropical forests and dipped into translucent waters to discover the best places to visit in French Polynesia. They can recommend where to go based on your interests, whether you鈥檙e after a luxurious retreat to relax in or something more adventurous.
The capital, Papeete, sits on the shores of the largest island, Tahiti, which is dominated by Mont Orohena鈥檚 forested slopes. Its sister island, Moorea, is much smaller, with white-sand beaches that lead into the warm waters of Haapito Lagoon. Bora Bora lures artists and writers with its galleries and cafés, while Huahine is a garden of fruit plantations and forests. The little-visited Marquesas Islands, relentlessly buffeted by Pacific surf, are adventurous isles where wild horses roam.
