Moorea is only 17 km (11 miles) from Tahiti.

Many visitors say it is worth the airfare to see Moorea's spectacular bays.The volcanic peaks, reflected in the tranquil waters of Cook's Bay and Opunohu Bay, rise like a shark's jaw from the island's basaltic base.

The mountain slopes are covered with pineapple plantations, and white sand beaches border crystalline lagoons.

After only a few days, you will discover that Moorea has filled you with peace, delight and a wonderful sense of happiness.
