Tahiti, the original paradise, the legendary tropical island where all of your vacation dreams can, and should come true. So once you’ve got over the initial “Hey, we’re in Tahiti” and unpacked your flip-flops what should be first on your list of stuff to do in Tahiti?
Tahiti Watersports – watersports come high on the list of priorities in Tahiti, well, surrounded by such sapphire blue, crystal clear, warm and inviting waters, what else would you expect? Whether you fancy enjoying a little scuba diving, windsurfing, snorkeling, waterskiing, kiteboarding, surfing, sailing or paddling, Tahiti is the place for you.
Tahiti Adventures – adventurous types can find plenty to keep them occupied in Tahiti, both in and out of the water. In the water you can enjoy a spot of shark feeding or deep sea fishing, on dry land you can enjoy Quad running, 4×4 safaris, climbing, hiking, canyoning and just enjoying the breathtaking surroundings.
Tahiti Fun on Dry Land – even if you’re not what you’d call adventurous, there’s plenty to see and do in Tahiti. There are terrific golf courses, eco and cultural tours, helicopter tours, camping facilities . . . fancy a spot of horse back riding, you can do that too, not forgetting taking a casual walk, bicycle ride, game of tennis or volleyball, and if you’re not too keen on sharing the water with the colorful wildlife there are plenty of swimming pools too.
Tahiti Museums – there are some terrific and interesting museums which are well worth spending a few hours of your precious vacation time too. Although most of the museums of Tahiti are located outside the city limits of Papeete, the capital, there’s one unique and very special museum in the capital itself, La Musee de la Perle – a museum dedicated solely to pearls, and particularly The Black Pearl (not the notorious pirate ship which Jack Sparrow and Capt Barbosa were always arguing over) but real black pearls. Talking of The Black Pearl . . .
. . . how did you enjoy that short, musical interlude. Good isn’t it, although admittedly it has very little to do with Tahiti.
