Another beautiful island. This island is where the natives go to vacation. We hired a taxi to show us around the island which I highly recommend. For about $150 he took us around the whole island and stopped at all the museums and points of interest - like the plantations tours. He even patiently waited and never made us feel rushed. It took about 4 hours to tour the island. The Polynesian people are generally good looking; very open, kind and gracious. The cruise rented another motu for the last evening and provided an extensive barbeque. They also included fire dancers for entertainment.

Such a beautiful and peaceful beach. Fantastic mountain view’s. Rainy on our day but it did not dampen the day. Would definitely recommend a ride throughout the island.

When in Huahine, there is nothing to do in Maroe where the ship is. The best is to book your excursion in advance. We booked a sailing cruise with a small party of 6 cruisers on the Eden Martin : wonderfull snorkeling at the motu Vaiorea and nice beach break with picnic at the Hana Iti Beach.

We did snorkel and safari truck tour! The snorkel guy brings you to his personal island where he lives. He's got great dogs that will swim in the water with you. Its so relaxing. Offered him a tip and he said that my enjoyment was his tip! Then we went to the pearl farm; meh but okay. Then we went on a truck to tour the island. Bring your mosquito repellant (or get Vit. B12 shots before you go on vacation). Also a lot of fun! Easy for everyone from teens to active seniors!

Fantastic island tour in a pickup with room for 8 on benches in the truck bed. Ride was comfortable. The driver/tour guide was knowledgeable, interesting and engaging. This is another island that we would like to visit again.
