Tahiti Luxury Holidays

If your idea of paradise is enchanting blue lagoons, volcanic peaks silhouetted against crimson sunsets and sipping Mai Tai cocktails under a canopy of swaying palms, then Tahiti is the ideal choice. With an interior rich with crashing waterfalls, indigenous wildlife and majestic mountains, visitors will feel as though they’ve stepped straight into a fantasy world. Distinctive black-sand beaches frame the translucent waters while the bustling capital Papeete will bring a smile to your face with its vibrant and friendly atmosphere. Luxury holidays in Tahiti are just the start of the adventure and once you’re there, you’ll never want to leave.

For the adventurous

A trip into the island’s tropical interior will bring you face-to-face with some of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Take in the splendour of Topatari, Vaiharuru and Puraha waterfalls, before dipping your toes in the cooling rock pools. Magnificent green mountains, archaeological remains and spectacular vistas await the intrepid explorer. A climb to the summit of Mount Aorai will reward you with amazing views from a height of 2,066 metres, while the lava tubes at Hitiaa are a prime example of the true power of nature. Hike through these magnificent wormholes made by the rapid cooling of lava - one of which contains two waterfalls, while another takes you into a dramatic cave complete with a waterfall and lake. With a luxury holiday in Tahiti, you’ll experience natural wonders like never before.

Surfing and canyoning

Grab a board and head to Papenoo for some fabulous waves perfectly suited to the beginner surfer. For the brave and more experienced, head across to the West Coast, where Sapinus and Taapuna offer some excellent reef breaks. Hava’e Pass in Teahupoo has the biggest waves and is home to an annual international surf competition.

For a truly exhilarating experience, there are several canyoning hotspots dotted across the island’s numerous valleys. With this unique activity, you can expect to jump and leap from heart-thumping heights into crystal clear natural pools, followed by an adrenaline-fuelled rappel down a waterfall.

Taking things slowly

The colourful and lively Marché de Papeete is a fabulous way to soak up the island’s atmosphere while shopping for exquisite souvenirs. Refresh yourself with cooling fruit juices and homemade ice cream as you wander through the produce-packed stalls.

For a true taste of local cuisine, the Place Vaiete Roulottes is where to go for a gastronomic feast. A multitude of little stalls fire up the ovens from around 6:00 pm and offer everything from chow mein, to pizzas, to freshly-grilled seafood. It’s also a great spot for people-watching and to listen to traditional live music.
