Huahine
Located at only 35 mn by plane from Tahiti, Huahine is not only the nearest Leeward island from Tahiti but also stands among the most preserved islands of the Society archipelago. It receives fewer tourists than Moorea or Bora Bora.
Huahine is divided into two parts – Huahine Nui and Huahine Iti – separated by a narrow channel. The main village is called Fare and welcomes the ferries coming from Tahiti. A few shops, snacks and restaurants are available around the ferry docks.
Lots of secluded white sand beaches all around …. surrounded by wild green vegetation. Even the public beach of Fare is really worth it.
Peaceful, charming… we love it very much !
