118 islands, each different and magnificent, are grouped into five archipelagos - the Society, the Tuamotu, the Gambier, the Marquesas and the Austral - all with very distinct characteristics and in which the inhabitants adapt the 21st century to the ancestral rythms of the ocean and the sun.
French Polynesia, predominately influenced from a trade wind belt, benefits from a tropical climate.
