Tahiti is the biggest island in French Polynesia, the South Pacific archipelago. Formed like a figure-8, it's divided into Tahiti Nui (the larger, western section) and Tahiti Iti (the eastern peninsula). Divided by the Taravao Strait. The island is surrounded by the coral reef. If you are looking for the most spectacular sea there is, you can find it there. For me, Tahiti is a queen of French Polynesia.
Tahiti has a miles of shoreline, dozens of resorts, French cuisine to die for Tahiti has all the makings of a honeymoon destination. But beach bums often pass over Tahiti's sands in favor of Bora Bora's ivory beaches. Despite its pleasant reputation and availability, Tahiti is more of an off the beaten path stop than a romantic getaway. But, that doesn't mean Tahiti should be disregarded. Tahiti has leafy forests sit beside sandy shores.
French crêpes are served alongside Tahitian poison cru (raw fish). If there ever was a place that exemplifies the beautiful duality of the French Polynesian archipelago, it's Tahiti. Here, the idiosyncratic, often chaotic atmosphere of the island's capital, Papeete, rubs elbows with untouched natural beauty. In fact, Tahiti the largest of French Polynesia's 118 islands is often referred to as two separate islands despite them being joined by a tiny land bridge. Tahiti Nui is the larger, northern section where Papeete can be found. Tahiti Iti (the smaller half) is less reachable, although many visitors make the trek here for a taste of privacy. Just note that spending a week on either part of Tahiti will cost you quite amount of change. But travelers agree that the warm waters, the lush jungles and the luxurious resorts are worth the binge.
