Best of
Polynesia
T
his, right here, is the stuff of which travel dreams are
made. Small wonder that 19 sailors from HMS Bounty
took up arms in 1789 and literally fought to stay on Tahiti's
palm-lined shores. Join us as we trace the mutiny's legacy in
the paradise that is French Polynesia (p.14), then say aloha
to the cultural hot spots of Hawaii (p.22), from artisan
villages and hula's birthplace to the temples of ancient
royalty. Next up: Hawaii's best hikes; trekking among stillspewing volcanoes, soaring sea cliffs, tropical forests and
more. We must be dreaming.
