Destination Profile
You might not want to bother booking that return when you come to bag cheap flights to French Polynesia from New Zealand. Why? Well…You almost certainly won't want to leave this South Pacific Shangri-La. Just take Bora Bora – even the name conjures images of aquamarine lagoons dotted with catamaran sails and topped by gnarled mountains. On Tahiti, you'll dive for black pearls and watch blowholes erupt on the coast. On Mo'orea, dagger-like mountains keep watch above primeval rainforests laden with parakeets and kingfishers. Oh, and this is a honeymooner's paradise, where overwater bungalows provide unrivaled views of the reefs and ocean waves.
Tahiti evokes images of exotic beaches and black pearls, both of which are in abundance here!
Eye-watering Bora Bora is heaven on earth. Overwater bungalows are the accommodation of choice. Snorkeling and sunbathing take care of the days.
Tow-in swells for the world's very best pro surfers crash across the reefs of Teahupo'o. It's an amazing place to go when there's a competition on.
