Paradise can now be found in the palm of your hand with Tahiti Tourisme launching its first travel app for Android and Apple mobile users to help travelers explore.

The app features augmented reality and a travel guide providing information on dining, accommodations, transportation and activities for most of Tahiti's islands and atolls including contact information and maps.

The app functions as a quick reference resource while travelers are in the islands.

Once the free app is completely downloaded all maps and information can be accessed without going online. Tahiti Tourisme recommends downloading the app prior to traveling to the Islands of Tahiti.

Travelers can also share photos and comments with their friends and other users on the spot or, if there is no internet access, the app stores the information for sharing later.

For more information and to download the app, search Tahiti Tourisme in the App Store or Play Store or scan the QR code.
