Miriam, below is the Huahine excerpt from an extensive review I posted on the B&K Web site of our 10-day PG cruise this past February:

Feb. 16 (Huahine): We took an early tender over to the pier and then a complimentary shuttle, which was really bumpy, into the town of Faré. The place is very small, and it rained while we were there. We walked around and went into the shops. We bought some additional sun block, which, of course, was expensive. Gail also bought some small gifts. Then, we went back to the ship for lunch (American buffet). We had to eat fairly quickly because we had a snorkeling excursion at 1:00 PM. That was a lot of fun. Again, it rained a little, but it didn't matter. We went to a great place for snorkeling—no currents, nice coral, and lots of fish. The tour guide, Dolores, was a riot. She had been married to an American (he's back in the States), and she told us she had a Tahitian lover. She has 4 children and it was unclear how many fathers were involved. She was probably in her 40s. After snorkeling, we went to a small beach and had some juice and fruit (watermelon, bananas, and coconut), which “hit the spot.” Then we cruised by one of the few fancy resorts on the island and made our way back to the pier. (Doris had some pareos she had hand painted for sale, and they were very nice, thought not cheap ($50)). Our fellow passengers had not brought much cash, and neither did we; what little we had was loaned out so someone could buy one of the pareos. (Am adding: Her pareos were quite different than almost any we had seen.)
