Moorea, The Magical Island
Soaring magically out of the ocean in an explosion of green velvet, is what
you would imagine a South Seas island to be.
A wide, shallow lagoon surrounds the island's vertical mountains where poetic threads of waterfalls tumble down fern-softened cliffs.
Peaceful meadows flanked by pinnacles of green will fill your senses and renew your belief in the majesty of nature.
Pastel-painted houses surrounded by gardens of hibiscus and birds of paradise, circle the island in a fantasy of happy, yet simple villages.
All who have traveled here agree: the beauty of Moorea is unforgettable.
Aimeo i te rara varu
This, the island's poetic name, comes from
the eight majestic mountain ridges.
Polynesian legend describes the panorama
of volcanic ridges as the second dorsal fin of the fish that became
the island of Tahiti. These pinnacles later inspired the mythical "Bali
Hai" that was based on James Michener's book, Tales of the South
Pacific.
