Fine sand that slips through our fingers, transparent waters brimming with life at our fingertips, the scent of Tiare that invades our senses&#8230; Welcome to paradise on earth!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Valle del Papeno\u00b4o<\/h2>\n<p>When we think of Tahiti, the first thing that comes to mind are miles of white sandy beaches surrounded by immense lagoons of turquoise waters. However, we discovered that this island has much more scenery to offer. If we go into the heart of the island we will find the spectacular Papeno&#8217;o Valley, with lush tropical forests, where the landscape changes radically. A scenery that will awaken our most adventurous side and, if we go up the Papeno&#8217;o River in a 4\u00d74, we will reach the thousand waterfalls hidden among the trees, a brilliant and sparkling image that not everyone has the courage and luck to see.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14315 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3.jpg\" alt=\"Valle del Papeno\u00b4o\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3-739x494.jpg 739w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3-395x263.jpg 395w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/polinesia3-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Diving in Rangiroa<\/h2>\n<p>Located in the Tuamotu archipelago, bounded by 418 islands, we find the atoll of Rangiroa; a reflection of the sky in the sea, because Rangiroa means &#8220;immense sky&#8221; in Paumotu. It is the second largest coral reef in the world, which emerges as a masterpiece of nature from the sea and houses an immense lagoon of 79 km2. Two seas delimit and delimit it, the Moana-tea (gentle ocean) that represents the immense lagoon and the Moana-uri (wild ocean) that refers to the waters of the sea that harbor all kinds of marine fauna such as sharks, whales, manta rays or dolphins, and that will delight any intrepid diver. No need to be an expert, this diving paradise will offer a spectacle of life to any spectator who decides to dive in its crystalline waters.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14313 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1.jpg\" alt=\"Diving in Rangiroa\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-788x526.jpg 788w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-739x494.jpg 739w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-395x263.jpg 395w, https:\/\/nuba.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Buceo-tiburones-1024x683-1-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Learning to do aerobatics in an airplane<\/h2>\n<p>We fly over paradise, to feel like a bird admiring a scenery that few people dare to see at more than 2500 feet high, that feeling of adrenaline that makes us wake up and feel alive&#8230; An experience that will allow us to fly through the sky doing all kinds of acrobatics such as spinning, turns, turns and negative accelerations, while enjoying incredible views of the volcanoes of Tahiti and Moorea and its endless coasts.
