An Exotic holiday retreat @ Huahine Island
In today’s’ times, islands and beaches are the favorite destinations for holidays. To escape the crowds and enjoy a truly beautiful experience, head to the island of Huahine. Known as the “Garden Island”, this picturesque haven is covered with lush tropical vegetation and is virtually untouched by the frenzy of tourists. Located about thirty minutes by air from Tahiti, Huahine is part of the French Polynesia. Here, you can simply relax on sandy shores and watch the emerald and blue waters of the many lagoons and bays, or get yourself ready for many water activities such as diving, jet skiing and much more.
The island of Huahine is composed of two smaller islands and a great way to explore these islands is to embark on a car/bus tour to see the quaint villages and experience the aroma of the tropical plantations in the air. Stop by to explore scenic beaches and tropical orchards or walk around a village community to get a feel of the Huahine way of life. For those wanting to venture into the shallow clear lagoons, the waters around Huahine are perfect for jet-skiing and boating. So, venture into the azure waters on a jet-ski or a boat and leisurely sail around to experience the beauty of the ocean colors around you. The secluded coves around Huahine offer you the perfect chance to spend time with your loved one in complete privacy. During your sail, you can stop by at any of the beautiful silver white shores and leisurely stretch your legs on the soft powdery sands of the beach.
Snorkeling is an excellent option to see the colorful yellow and orange corals of the island and also to spot the varied marine creatures such as reef fish, eagle rays, tuna, etc. There are guided glass-bottomed boat tours for those wanting to see the under-world beauty in the comforts of a boat interior. Besides, you can also go on tours to tropical orchards to see the cultivation of many exotic tropical produce such as vanilla, coffee, etc. Black Pearl farming is a unique activity in Huahine. A visit to these farms is a must, as you can see the interesting process of how shiny black pearls are naturally cultivated and harvested and also buy a variety of fabulous pearl jewelry.
