Tahiti – A Synonym for Paradise!

Located in the South Pacific, Tahiti and her islands are the everlasting dreams of the nirvana of love and romance! The islands are spread over 4 million Square kilometres of the south pacific. It seems as if the islands are sprinkled across the area and each island belonging to the archipelagos has its own distinct characteristics.

The wonderful blend of cultures and history can be experienced in the art and dances of the region. The Polynesian Dance is a favorite among the visitors to watch. The dancers move their bodies according to the rhythm of the beats of the music. They are categorized into two different forms, the Noho and the Luna Dance. The dance form is grossly influenced by the western culture and the guitar plays a very crucial role in it.
All year round there are a number of cultural events that take place which are major attractions to the visitors. You can engage in the VAKA’IKI, MARATHON TAHITI-MOOREA, TAHITI GUITARE FESTIVAL and the ANNUAL CRAFT EXHIBITION OF THE ISL, and many more events.
