French Polynesia

Bora Bora is the honeymoon archetype — overwater bungalows, turquoise lagoons, and a ring of motus around an emerald volcanic peak. Tahiti has the food and culture, Moorea has the hiking, Fakarava has the diving. Safe, French-leaning, and worth the long flight exactly once in your life (at minimum).
