Clearly visible from Tahiti, Moorea is located only
nine miles away across the Sea of the Moon. For
all the hustle and bustle of nearby Tahiti (125,000+
population compared to Moorea's 9,000), Moorea is
the best-kept secret of the trio of famous French
Polynesian islands. Bora Bora and Tahiti get the
press, but Moorea is the real prize. Beyond the
picture postcard lagoons and white sand beaches,
the volcanic island -- twice as old as Tahiti --
is also famous for its six mountains, including
Mt. Rotui, which offers spectacular views of Opunohu
Bay and the island. |
