Black pearls, pink-sanded beaches and rippling turquoise lagoons, Rangiroa holidays bring a dazzling spectrum of colour and life.
We recommend snorkelling or diving to see Hawksbill turtles amongst coral reefs
Rangiroa is one of the largest atolls in the world, home to a remote region of French Polynesia. Attracting eager divers and those who are intrigued by the ocean’s most hidden corners, Rangiroa holidays seem to uncover endless aquatic curiosities. Its surrounding lagoon holds unparalleled natural beauty and world-class snorkelling and diving opportunities.
Rangiroa comprises over 240 islets encircling its vast lagoon, all of which spotlight incredible coastal scenes. White, powdery sand fringes each islet, lined with swaying palm trees, leading you from idyllic luxury resorts toward Rangiroa’s western Blue Lagoon, a “natural aquarium” characterised by shallow cerulean water.
Polynesian culture thrives in Rangiroa island, as seen in the music, dance and craft traditions which spread amongst the islands and their respective villages. Some of Rangiroa’s most beloved villages are Tereia, Fenuaora and Otepipi, all of which are home to intricate religious landmarks and social hubs.
When to go to Rangiroa
As usual with French Polynesia holidays, you will find that the surrounding South Pacific brings intense humidity and heat each year between December and March. Warm temperatures and blissful sunny skies still remain between April and November, without the heavy rain of Rangiroa’s Wet Season.The best time to visit Rangiroa is perhaps its shoulder months, in April/May and November, as crowds are fewer and you can seek the best of both worlds. Temperatures are high, whilst you are avoiding the occasional winds and clouds of French Polynesia’s Dry Season.
