ISLAND OF TAHITI
Tahiti, the Island of Love
Tahiti, often called The Island of Love, is the largest and most well known of the 115 islands and atolls that comprise French Polynesia. Crystal-clear water, spectacular coral reefs and black sand beaches surround Tahiti. Tahiti's landscape consists of towering volcanic peaks reaching over dense rainforests of soft ferns and then plunging deep into the sea. At high altitudes, the dark, moist tree-ferns blanket the forests and beautiful waterfalls cascade into cool rivers and streams.
Tahiti is comprised of two main island masses, Tahiti-Nui (big Tahiti) and Tahiti-Iti (little Tahiti), which are connected by an isthmus called Plateau of Taravao. The capital of Tahiti and her Islands is the bustling port of Papeete. Papeete is a modern port with a population of about 70,000 people in the city and its suburbs.
