Day 24 - Moorea, French Polynesia


World Cruise 2013
January 28, 2013

The ship was anchored at 6:22 AM outside of Moorea.  Moorea is one of the South Pacific islands that is part of the Society Islands, one of the five major island groups that form French Polynesia.  On the north side of the island are two nearly symmetrical bays called Cook's Bay and Oponohu Bay.  The island was formed as a volcano approximately 1.5 to 2.5 million years ago, the result of a geologic hotspot in the mantle under the oceanic plate that formed the whole of the
Society Archipelago.

I took a tour called "Circle Island Tour & Belvedere".

Below are some pictures that I took from the ship and on my tour.
