You can also drive the road that twists around Mount Oropiro to experience amazing views of the lush island, take a lagoon tour or go hiking. The nearby island of Taha’a shares the same lagoon, and you can swim at a private motu (small islet) or learn more about the nearby pearl farms.

On your first day in Huahine, we’ve added a full-day tour around the lagoon. During the trip, you’ll learn how to crack open a coconut, how to make poisson cru (the national dish – raw fish with lime juice), and how to tie a sarong. You’ll snorkel alongside stingrays, blacktip reef sharks and clouds of silvery fish before eating freshly barbecued seafood with your feet dangling in the warm water. It’s a wonderful way to spend the day and get to see the best of the lagoon.
