Fh and I are considering Tahiti for our honeymoon. After reading several books about Tahiti it states that the rainy season can start anywhere from June/July. Is this true? i dont want to go anywhere with the possiblity of rain! Any thoughts would be apprciated.
Thanks

Re: Tahiti in June?
I actually thought that the rainy season was in January. FI and I were looking into it for our honeymmon as well, but in January- I was afraid of the weather being too humid (its thier summer). Try gotahiti.com- I think they break out the weather by month.

Re: Tahiti in June?
We went there for our honeymoon in June 2003 and we were there for a little over 2 weeks and did encounter some rain but it wasn't like constant rain for days on end. I think it rained 3 times - the evening that we arrived, 1 day during our stay and then in the late afternoon on the day we were leaving. Otherwise it was beautiful, sunny and perfect. The resorts had those huge umbrellas available for guests all around the resort so you don't have to worry about getting wet if it does rain.
I did a review of my honeymoon if you are interested:
According to them, the rainy season is Nov to April, but they also say that it never gets that bad. THe prices are less that ime of year, so I would assume that it is the rainy season.

it's amazing there even while it rains! we were there mid july and it rained 2 or 3 times. it doesn't last long and it's really refreshing. just one day it rained for more than a couple hours, the morning we were leaving.

I was there at the end of June towards the beginning of July. The first island we went to was Moorea and it rained once, but when we arrived in Bora Bora it rained 3 out of the 5 nights we were there. Like Sonia mentioned the resorts have huge umbrellas they give out.

Thanks for the feedback. Tahiti does look amazing.. the only issue is that my FH does not want to be in a place where it could rain. Ill show him these pictures and they will hopefully change his mind!

Re: Tahiti in June?
when we went it was dry season. just keep in mind any where you go you have a chance of getting rain. obviously some places are greater though. good luck.

Re: Tahiti in June?
I guess January is the rainy season then - do you suggest not to go then?
