Slice of life in the Islands of Tahiti

Tahiti and French PolynesiaLegendary Tahiti, isle of love, has long been the vision of "la Nouvelle Cythère," the earthly paradise.

Explorers Wallis, Bougainville, and Cook all told of a land of spellbinding beauty and enchantment, where the climate was delightful, hazardous insects and diseases unknown, and the islanders, especially the women, among the handsomest ever seen. Rousseau's "noble savage" had been found! A few years later, Fletcher Christian and Captain Bligh acted out their drama of sin and retribution here.
