Each Tahitian island has its own charm
You are here : Complete Guide to the Islands > The Tahitian Islands
All the Tahitian islands, which number 118, are distinctly different from each other, each one has its own individual charms. Moorea is not Bora Bora and Rangiroa is not Manihi. They are all soothed by the softly blowing trade winds, that gently rustle the foliage of the palm trees, or, depending on the season cooled by the Maraamu that blows from the South in the Austral winter.

Tahiti is also known as French Polynesia which consists of several island groups. The main grouping being the Society Islands of Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea, Tahaa, Bora Bora and Maupiti. All these islands are on popular cruise circuits that enable you to gain a true appreciation of the stunning scenery of Tahiti.
