LOST IN PARADISE

Whether you're looking for romance, seclusion or exotic nature, the islands Tahiti in the  South Pacific are where dreams become reality. 

The two islands of Tahiti, joined by an isthmus, are carpeted in lush forests and fringed by black-sand beaches. Tahitians fiercely guard the sacred traditions inherited from their ancient ancestors. Their weaving, woodcarving and tattooing all tells the story of their rich history. We will introduce you to some of the custodians of artisan skills, passed down through generations. From Tahitian dancers to tattooists and fishermen.  

Fly over Maupiti for a sky-high view of this picture-perfect ring of islets. Then let the countless hues of azure draw you into the pristine lagoon to meet the resident Manta Rays swimming above a coral garden. Then sail the lagoon at sunset in a va'a motu canoe for a sumptuous champagne picnic.

For those who are PADI certified, Rangiroa is a loop of islands that encircle a vast lagoon which offers some of the world's best diving. The atoll separates Moana-tea (the Peaceful Ocean) from Moana-uri (the Wild Ocean). A marine biologist will help you recognise some of the inhabitants of this richly biodiverse marine environment. 

Indulge your dreams of being castaway on a desert island with a few days at an exclusive private island resort that was once the residence of a Hollywood A-lister - we’re naming no names. Like a dream, time here becomes a blur. But when you're in paradise, no time is lost.
