In a few words
My mum is French, my dad is half Marquesan father ans, as for my part, I have arrived in French Polynesia at the age of 8.
With a diploma in business and tourism, I’ve worked in several areas such as telephony and the hotel industry before integrating Moana Voyages’ team in 2017.
Proud of my Polynesian origins, I like to promote our little piece of heaven, which I consider as unique as indescribable.
I spend a lot of time in our turquoise lagoons, which are idyllic and soothing places.
Your ideal stay in French Polynesia?
4 days in Moorea. Indeed, having lived there during several years, this island is to me an essential step of any trip. You will fall for its mountains, its lagoons populated by sharks and rays (along with whales from August to October), its beautiful beaches as Temae and of course the unmissable lunch at the “Coco Beach” located in a “motu” (islet). You will get to enjoy the beautiful sandbank there, a few steps away from the restaurant.
3 days in Huahine, where you will find serenity and tranquility. This island is still authentic and welcoming. A small advice: visiting of the natural aquarium of the pass of “Fare” is essential to grasp the beauty of the island.
3 days in Taha’a. This island is known around the world for its vanilla. Only accessible by boat, you will be dazzled by this change of scene. You will want to dive in its turquoise lagoons and crystalline sea floors.
3 days in Tikehau: Part of the Tuamotu archipelago, this place is known for its bird island. You will be blown away by its beautiful pink sand beaches stretching as far as you can see. It is crucial to spend a day picnicking on one of its several “motu”.
1 day in Tahiti : Before the departure, so you can rest but also to make the last souvenir purchases at the market of Papeete for example, and to have the opportunity to taste a good local dish at the “roulottes” (= food trucks) in a friendly and warm atmosphere near the marina of Papeete.
Your favorite place in French Polynesia?
Moorea, this island as beautiful and unique.
Your favorite restaurant?
The Mahana snack in Moorea, is one of the best restaurants-snacks that I know. Next to the water’s edge, feet in the sand, you will succumb in front of their menu, tasty and copious, with fresh raw fish of course!
