      Blue Lagoon movie was filmed in Tavewa islands group in Fiji. I have been to both Moorea and Tavewa, I can say Tavewa is far more beautiful and has even better beaches and lagoons, nothing in Tahiti can be compared to Fiji. When planning to travel the South Pacific, plan to spend more time in Fiji, you won't regret the experience.

    The song ''French Letter'' written by the New Zealand band ''Herbs'' in 1982 immediately came to my mind watching this spectacular video you have posted Gabriel. Loved everything about it. Herbs' music was described as ‘infectiously upbeat’, and it often carried a political message. Their 1982 hit 'French letter', questioning French nuclear testing in the South Pacific, came to express the country's anti-nuclear stance.

    I had the thrill and pleasure to stay on Moorea in 1985 at a Club Med….as a young guy it was my first exotic international trip. I remember how lovely it was, taking a sail boat into one of those bays and diving into the water. The offshore motus and sandbars were incredible. The only downside is I remember mosquitos were intense there and repellent required. Thanks for bringing me the memories Gabriel. Cheers from desert paradise Palm Springs🌴🌵👋🏻

    Thanks for bringing back some great memories from one of my all-time favourite islands (tied with Rarotonga, Cook Islands, NZ) - Moorea is amazing, I visited first in 2008 and then again in 2015. I know I might have gushed about Bora Bora (which is incredible) - but Moorea & Rarotonga are reasonably priced, whereas Bora Bora is the playground of millionaires (my overwater bungalow at the Intercontinental was $2500 USD per night). So, I prefer Moorea as you don’t come back bankrupt! PS - the reason Tahiti’s beaches mostly suck is because it has almost no natural lagoon, whereas Moorea is surrounded by a coral fence, leading to those shallow turquoise waters that you see. In Rarotonga, you can literally walk into the ocean in 3-4 feet water for probably a half mile. The lagoons make all the difference. Glad you enjoyed the getaway & I’m glad the advice came in handy! 🏝️

      I looked on booking.com and actually found some reasonably priced accommodation on Bora Bora. So I really want to see it, as well as Huahine. Cook Islands sound sweet as well, also Vanuatu and New Caledonia. Tons to see in that part of the world. But for now, time to get into NZ and see what's going on around here.

    Beautiful Mo'orea......I stayed there for a few days, 12 years ago, at a cheap beach camping cabin. Fabulous sunsets. There is a local bus that goes around the island. Your Rotui juices are also made on that island. French bread is kept low priced there so Laughing Cow cheese and cucumber sandwiches were my go to lunch throughout my Society Islands trip. A trip to French Polynesia does not have to be crazy expensive but can be if you are staying in those over water bungalows.

      Your name sounds French. Are you related to some people in Tahiti? I think I spent 3 or 4 weeks there in 1989. Hopped a few islands, I enjoyed Moorea the most because it was neater, cleaner and has better beaches. I didn't like Bora Bora much due to its ugly black dirt beaches, only a small part of Bora Bora with a better looking coast but it is taken over by expensive resorts. The good thing about Bora Bora is the free wild mangos fell everywhere on the ground. Tahiti mangos are the best tasting mangos in the world, better than the ones in Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, and even Cuba.

      35 years ago Moore's Club Med was rated the one of the world's very best. It was excellent, I know because I went there 35 years ago.

    Hiya gab. This place looks beautiful. Although I’ve never been here I have been to the island of la digue which I think has to be the most beautiful place in the world. Next time you’re in the Indian Ocean have a look:-)
