Discover Tikehau's Breathtaking Pink Sands Beach
Tikehau, a hidden gem in French Polynesia, boasts a unique beach with sand so pink it's almost surreal. The island, oval-shaped and spanning 26 km, is home to just a few inhabitants who live off fishing and low-key tourism.
The star attraction is the Pink Sands Beach, where the sand's delicate hue comes from finely ground coral fragments. Under the sun and azure sky, the sand glows vibrantly, contrasting with the deep green palm trees and blue water. Motus surrounding Tikehau's lagoon offer more deserted beaches with sands in various shades, from immaculate white to powdery pink.
Walking on the Pink Sands Beach feels like treading on a soft, sparkling surface. Beneath, a thriving underwater life teems with rays, butterflyfish, and turtles. Luxury accommodations like the Tikehau by Pearl Resorts offer bungalows on stilts with direct lagoon views, and even dining with feet in the water.
Tikehau, an off-the-beaten-path atoll, invites visitors to experience its unique pink sands, vibrant underwater life, and luxurious yet discreet accommodations. It's a paradise for those seeking an unspoiled tropical getaway.
