Moorea Island

The Moorea Island travel guide and holiday packages

Moorea is said to have been the inspiration for the mythic Bali shark from James Michener's Tales of the South Pacific and is one of the most beautiful Isles in Polynesia. The closeness, combined with the island's susceptible and neighbourly environment, makes Moorea a popular place for couple, family and people. Moorea has nevertheless succeeded in maintaining its small island feeling despite this appeal and the existence of some international brandedresorts.

Moorea is not a surprising destination, the island is a geographic miracle. Cook's and Opunohu Bay. Moorea has a uniquely beautiful scenery that makes it one of the best places for adventures and activities, both on shore and on the canal. That means that a Moorea holiday is also perfect for the family.

There are many resort facilities on the island offering children's programmes and facilities, free food and funny entertainment for any age. Favourite trips to the Laguna includes snorkelling and stinging, jet-skiing and moto-picknicks. From August to October, during the breeding period, we suggest a guided visit with oceanographer Dr. Michael Poole.
