#83 Go to Tahiti

Jump to Comments

OK, you got me.  I’ve never been there, but hey, a girl can dream can’t she?  I’m adding this incredible place to my list of things to do.  My sister and I can’t seem to get it out of our heads.  We have always joked that we would love to vacation here someday, but I think this should be less of a joke and more of a reality.

The islands of Tahiti are in French Polynesia.  One of the islands, Bora Bora is the particular spot that my sister and I have always wanted to go.  Tahiti is an amazing place with crystal clear water and tons of things to do. You can do everything from a safari, to diving, sailing, water skiing, windsurfing or a sunset cruise.  Modern Bride voted the island “The Best Resort Beach,” so If you’re wondering where you should honeymoon, Tahiti is your answer.  And, when the place has seen the likes of Nicole Kidman and Eva Longoria Parker you know it has to be good.

Go to Tahiti, soak up the sun and if you get there before me, send a postcard or leave a comment!

Watch the video below and then tell me this is not a place you would want to go.

While I knew a trip like this would be a small fortune, I wanted to see what the price was like if I flew out of Austin tomorrow (I know, wishful thinking).  See for yourself below.  Prices provided by Expedia.
