With each photo I take of Tahiti in French Polynesia, I fall more in love with the landscape. No matter how many times I’ve traveled myself, I still feel drawn to the South Pacific — my next visit will be this fall! On every tour, I’ve been struck by the tranquil, stunningly beautiful paradise that is so perfect for honeymooners. I want nothing more than to share this deep beauty with as many newlyweds as possible. Imagine, for a moment, the place where you’ll want to build early memories of romance and companionship. A honeymoon in the South Pacific combines relaxation with the adventures of cultural immersion. After a short eight hour flight from Los Angeles to Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia creates a destination that still feels distant and exotic. Honeymooners will enjoy bragging rights that say “you’ve been there” and have returned with stories. As soon as you step off the plane, you’ll notice the friendliness of the Tahitians, whose warm hospitality infuses a kind, safe travel environment. On land, enjoy the breathtaking, unspoiled beauty of islands filled with so many shades of green to capture on film. For adventurers, consider fantastic water sports like snorkeling, diving, and swimming with dolphins. For couples in search of a more relaxed honeymoon, the warm sands and crystal blue waters are perfect for peaceful lounging on the beach. I always suggest that my clients include breakfast with their hotel for an excellent value and infusion of local culture. While still saving money, imagine starting the day with an indulgent French baguette, a plate of fresh guava and passion fruit, and the...
