A mile of coastline with dozens of resorts, French dishes to die for, and a plethora of resorts - Tahiti is everything you could want out of an ideal honeymoon spot. Beach lovers tend to skip across Tahiti's beaches in favor of the white beaches of Bora Bora. Although it has a heavenly popularity and ease of access, Tahiti is often more than a place to stopover in the way of romantic getaways in smaller islands. But that doesn't mean Tahiti isn't worth a visit.
The lush forests of the forest sit alongside the sandy beaches, while French crepes are served with Tahitian fish cru (raw seafood). If ever there was any place that could be described as embodying the stunning duality that is Tahiti, the French Polynesian archipelago that Tahiti. In Tahiti, the quirkier sometimes chaotic and tense atmosphere of the capital city, Papeete is awash with beautiful, natural beauty that is unspoiled.
Actually, Tahiti - the largest of France's 118 islands - is frequently called two distinct islands, even though they are joined through a narrow bridge over the land. Tahiti Nui is the larger northern portion that is where Papeete is found. Tahiti Iti (the smaller, southern portion) is not as accessible however, many tourists make their way to Tahiti for solitude. Be aware that an entire week in either region of Tahiti can cost a significant amount of money. However, most travelers believe that the warm seas as well as lush forests and luxury resorts are definitely worth it.
