Moorea, or Mo'orea (Mo-o-RAY-a) as it is also known, is one of the Society Islands in French Polynesia, located some 17 miles from the main island of Tahiti. It's a favorite destination for honeymooners, who favor the resorts located along the coastline. Tourism is the main business, and you can expect a warm and friendly welcome from the islanders. It was a stop on our Windstar "Dreams of Tahiti" cruise, and after the cruise, we spent three additional days here. One visit and you'll know why it's so in-demand for newlyweds and travelers from around the world. -- Gerry Barker Moorea Photo TourCook's BayCook's Bay Hotel and Suites is located on Moorea's north coast, on a tranquil lagoon. It recently reopened after a two-year renovation project. Its 38 suites offer amazing views of the resort's picturesque setting. The property also features a restaurant, Le Cook, connected by a footbridge over the lagoon. If you are looking for paradise, you've come to the right place. Taking a Private Tour of MooreaOn our last day, we opted to go on a private tour,. We hired Damon to show us the sights and tell us first-hand about the island's culture and attractions. Among other things, he introduced us to coconut bread, and we are totally hooked. Looks like we'll have to come back to get more! Comments are closed.
