“In French Polynesia, the atolls of the Tuamotu form a very special archipelago. This string of 77 atolls spread’s out over 1500 km from North to South and 500 km from East to West. These outstanding landscapes of isolated islets surrounded by emerald and jade lagoons, will ravish the visitor.”

“In an overcrowded, overdeveloped and overcomplicated world, Tahiti and her islands offer a welcomed trip back. Back to a time of simple, natural beauty. Where no structure is taller than a palm tree. And a deserted beach is the norm, not the exception. Come to a place time has forgotten. Come to Tahiti and her islands.”

One of my top recommendations for the South Pacific are cruises on the intimate and luxurious Paul Gauguin to Tahiti’s Society Islands, Tuamotus Atolls and Marquesas as well as special voyages to the Cook Islands.

I am fascinated by the youngest performers. They often have energy and enthusiasm in lieu of the practiced skill and precision of experienced dancers. Their personailities and raw talent certainly shine through in their pure enjoyment of the activity.

In contrast to polynesian dance, melanesian dance is more restrained for female dancers. These Fijian women are more conservatively dressed and make smaller foot movements and hand gestures in their traditional dance performance. Interestingly, this is not the case with the male dancers who lean toward very assertive postures and actions.

The remote Marquesas Islands are a world apart from the Society Islands. They are separate and unique. The landscape itself is fiercely rugged with high mountains, hidden waterfalls,  and jungle-like forests.  Notice how these qualities have influenced the Marquesan dance elements and costumes.
