5 Essential Tahitian Honeymoon Tips
Is wedding planning taking a toll on your relationship (and your sanity)? Relax, it’s natural to feel stressed out by the whirlwind of activity leading up to one of the most momentous days of your life. But once the cake has been served and your guests have left, you deserve a dream honeymoon to help unwind and celebrate. If your ultimate romantic getaway involves warm tropical breezes, sandy secluded beaches and romantic huts over the water then Tahiti (French Polynesia) is where you want to be. Here’s 5 essential tips to help you have the romantic and relaxing Tahitian honeymoon you’ve always dreamed of:
1. Leave your heavy sweaters and coats at home: Blessed with warm tropical weather year-round, Tahiti makes for an ideal destination any time of the year. The islands generally experience two seasons: from June-October when the climate is cooler and drier with average temperatures in the low 80’s and from November-May when the weather is warm and humid with average temperatures in the mid 80’s. Pack light and dress comfortably.
2. Get off the main island: The group of South Pacific Polynesian islands often referred to as “Tahiti” (though officially named “French Polynesia”) is made up of 121 exotic atolls and islands including such gems as Bora Bora, Moorea, Huahine and Rangiroa. After exploring Tahiti Island and its capital, Papeete, be sure to venture off the beaten track and explore some of the nearby islands for more seclusion and romance. There are seemingly endless pristine white sand beaches, underwater caves, lush waterfalls and coral reefs for you and your partner to discover together.
3. Experience something truly spectacular: What better way to kick off your marriage than by creating memories to last a lifetime? Share a new adventure together by taking advantage of Tahiti’s endless activities such as snorkeling, scuba, shark-diving, surfing, mountain trekking or staying in an overwater bungalow. You’ll return home with not only fond memories to cherish but also great stories to tell.
4. Take time to do nothing at all: Life on the islands moves at a remarkably slow pace. Make sure to chill out, relax, unwind, go with the flow and appreciate life’s simple pleasures. Awaken and indulge your senses to the breathtaking bouquet of colors, scents, sounds, textures and flavors that surround you. Lounging lazily and gazing at the sea never felt so sublime.
5. Bring a copy of your marriage certificate: Nearly all of Tahiti’s resorts, hotels, restaurants and vendors offer extra perks and discounts for newlyweds. Be sure to bring a copy of your marriage certificate to take advantage of these exclusive discounts and free upgrades.
