Nature of French Polynesia - national parks and reserves for active recreation
The amazing nature of French Polynesia has glorified the islands as a piece of paradise. The forests, beaches, lagoons and mountains of the country, as well as its amazing fish, birds and animals, attract travelers tired of cities. The wonderful waterfall Faautau in the forest on the island of Tahiti offers you an opportunity to relax and refresh yourself. Tropical butterflies flutter here, but there are many not very pleasant insects too, like the mosquitoes. Under the waterfall is a lagoon with clear water.
