Moorea

Believed to have inspired the mythical Bali Hai from James Michener's Tales of the South Pacific, Moorea is one of the most scenically striking islands in French Polynesia.

We went out on a snorkeling excursion and were hoping to be able to swim with the lemon sharks and black tip reef sharks. However, the storm swell was too strong, so we just observed them from the boat. We were able to get in the coral reef at a calmer location before the storm hit.
