Huahine, January 2006: the most unspoiled of all Islands in Tahiti
This Island was annected by the French much later than other Islands of the archipelago. People of Huahine defended their independence for whopping 40 years, before they were forced to accept the inevitable. In a contemporary time being a French Territory and part of European Union has both its merits and minuses, similarly to the dilemma of Hawaii being a state of the USA.

In a recent time the Island because famous through excavations of Prof. Sinoto, of the Bishop Museum, Honolulu. Huahine is blessed by a large amount of original or restored Tahitian stone temples, called Marae.

If you look for a contemporary Polynesia without golf courses and bloated hotel lobbies, this might be a great place to go! You will find unspoiled places to swim, good cousin and friendly people. We will never forget the time spend on this Island! We will be back!
