Land and water activites descriptions, links to major providers and to special offers, and an great gallery of photos in a range of topics. The Travel Planner will help you arrange your trip and connect you to a specialist in Polynesian travel. This is a helpful, interesting site.

Content Award


Government Presidency

This section of the Government Presidency site has the best, and certainly the most official, information on the history, geography, and economy of French Polynesia. The French side of the site has different information in each section and is worth investigating. The geography pages are particularly good taking you to details about most of the islands through a clickable map. The economy section presents up to date information about the growing economy of French Polynesia with charts, graphs, and tables. If you like to know about where you go - here's the place to find out. Links go to French State and local government sites, mostly in French.

Quality Award


Tahiti Tourisme

The compact and attractive navigation of the official site of the Office du Tourisme de Tahiti et ses Iles presents valuable information quickly and authoritatively. Brief sections on accommodations, geography, population, and the political structure provide basic and important information. A good general information page gives you practical knowledge about visas, climate, communications, customs, currency, taxes, tipping, and all connecting airlines. Honeymooning, scuba diving, cruising, charterboating, and green activities all have their own sections. Good general introduction and starting point for French Polynesia.

Tahiti Sun Travel

Though mostly a travel company site, Tahiti Sun Travel has good information in a quick and simple presentation for the major island groupings in French Polynesia. Major links are to Tahiti, Bora Bora, Moorea, Huahine, Manihi and Tikehau, Raiatea and Tahaa, and Tetiaroa (Marlon Brando's island). Each link is led by What to do? What to see? and Where to stay? sections, each with links out to vendors and providers. Other information on flora and fauna, transportation, news, business, and retail give surprising depth to the site.
