When i was little, we liked to think of Moorea as a convenient leasure destination with hôtels and a rural life just a ferry ride away. In Tahiti, this island is mainly known for the pineapples that grow there, reknowned to be the sweetest pineapples in the region, as well as for tourism. The island is the second largest tourist destination in French Polynesia after Bora Bora.

At that time, we rarely went there and all I remembered was the island’s silhouette as seen from Tahiti.
So it was quiet a feat when, with a friend, I took advantage, this week end, of a promotion price at one of the resort hotels located on this island.
