Sample Itineraries for French Polynesia: Explore Island Luxury and Lagoon Romance

French Polynesia is the ultimate escape for those seeking luxury, tranquillity, and unforgettable natural beauty. Whether you dream of honeymooning in an overwater bungalow, exploring vibrant coral gardens, or experiencing authentic island culture, French Polynesia offers a wealth of possibilities. These sample itinerary descriptions are designed to inspire — showcasing the range of island-hopping adventures, romantic retreats, and luxury getaways available across the archipelagos.

A classic itinerary begins in Tahiti, the main gateway, where travellers can relax after their flight and enjoy black-sand beaches, lush waterfalls, and vibrant markets. From there, many journeys continue to Moorea for its dramatic volcanic peaks and warm, turquoise lagoons. This island is perfect for active couples and nature lovers, offering hiking, snorkelling with rays, and cultural immersion in traditional Polynesian villages.

For the quintessential honeymoon experience, an itinerary that includes Bora Bora is a must. Known for its dazzling lagoon and luxury overwater villas, this is where romance meets exclusivity. Spend your days lounging on private decks, sailing into sunset, or indulging in spa rituals using local monoi oils. Many luxury itineraries pair Bora Bora with quieter islands like Taha’a or Rangiroa, where travellers can drift snorkel through coral gardens or visit vanilla plantations and pearl farms.

Those seeking adventure and untouched beauty often opt for the remote atolls of the Tuamotu Archipelago. Islands like Fakarava and Rangiroa offer world-class diving in protected marine reserves, where guests swim among sharks, dolphins, and reef fish in vibrant, untouched ecosystems. These itineraries are ideal for divers and eco-travellers wanting a more off-the-beaten-path experience without sacrificing comfort or intimacy.

Cultural itineraries may include time in Huahine, often called the most authentic island in French Polynesia. With ancient temples, lush jungles, and peaceful beaches, it offers a slower pace and a deeper connection to Polynesian heritage. Paired with stays on Raiatea — the spiritual birthplace of Polynesian navigation — these trips offer a more meaningful perspective on the islands’ traditions and sacred history.

For those wanting complete seclusion and ultra-luxury, bespoke packages to Tetiaroa — home to The Brando resort — are also popular. This private atoll offers unmatched eco-luxury, fine dining, guided nature experiences, and white-sand beaches that feel untouched by time. Tetiaroa is often chosen as a final stop on high-end itineraries, delivering a peaceful finale to an extraordinary island journey.

From romantic honeymoons and scuba adventures to island-hopping escapes and cultural discoveries, French Polynesia offers sample itineraries as varied as its landscapes. Whether you’re planning a 7-night retreat or a 14-night exploration across multiple archipelagos, the flexibility and beauty of these islands ensure that every trip can be tailored to your perfect vision of paradise.
