Cool places to run series: Tahiti


Tahiti 

Tahiti is the largest island in French Polynesia, the South Pacific archipelago. Shaped like a figure-8, it's divided into Tahiti Nui (the larger, western section) and Tahiti Iti (the eastern peninsula). With black-sand beaches, lagoons, waterfalls and 2 extinct volcanoes, it's a popular vacation destination. Explored by Captain James Cook in the 18th century, it was also often painted by French artist Paul Gauguin.

Pro's: everything. Beaches, nature, running.....no traffic lights whoohooo. 
Tahiti is great for running. Don't be surprised by rain showers..these islands are lush for a reason. I managed to run two half marathons and during both runs i got a nice luke-warm treatment of, as we call it, 'liquid sunshine'
