Destination overview

Scattered across the deep blue waters of the Pacific Ocean, about 10,000 miles away from the UK, the five archipelagos of French Polynesia are nothing short of an untainted paradise. Images of wooden bungalows perched on stilts above a turquoise sea are now famous worldwide and consistently associated with this stunning holiday destination. Ideal for romantic getaways and lazy holidays, the 118 islands and atolls also offer lots of activities for sport and nature lovers such as hiking, swimming and sunset picnics. There are also lots of exotic deserted beaches to explore in complete tranquility. Polynesia can be explored by boat, on horseback, on foot or by 4x4, you just need to decide where you'll head first!

pros

  •  Fascinating artistic and cultural heritage, token of the continuity of local traditions.
  •  Truly wondrous nature to be discovered by boat, on horseback, on foot or by 4x4

cons

  •  A very far and remote destination
  •  Some of the valleys have difficult access. The roads, not tarmacked, are not always suitable for driving.

French Polynesia Travel guide

Our Editorial team's advice

Besides all the different water sports and activities offered by the major hotels and resorts, don't miss out on a mini-cruise (often on a catamaran) by day or at sunset. It is the best way to observe, from the lagoon, the superb panoramas of the island. If you dream of a 100% Polynesian holiday, choose to stay with local people, in a thatched home by the lagoon - it's the best way to go straight to the heart of Tahitian lifestyle!
