Hiking in the Leeward Societies
Natural Beauty Everywhere you look
Raiatea, Taha'a, and Bora Bora
Looks fun huh?
After leaving Tahiti we sailed over night to Raiatea. It was a nearly perfect sail- great weather and beautiful scenery. After so much time in the city, I was happy to get off the boat and back into the jungle. The leeward island have provided a variety of hiking experiences. From paved walks down the road, to strenuous climbs up slippery jungle cliffs, and we've enjoyed them all.

The ropes were necessary to make it to the top

We'll be leaving Bora Bora soon- too soon and heading west yet again to the Cook Islands.
