Understand
If you are visiting French Polynesia on a budget, Moorea is the place to be. Moorea is like Tahiti but cheaper and less touristy. It's mostly rural and farming is big. There are chickens everywhere; the roosters crowing at 6 am can get old after a few days.
Mosquitoes can be a problem away from the coast, so bear that in mind when selecting a place to stay.
