Tupai is more than just an island. It’s a secret paradise, a heart-shaped island set in the water, far from everything, in the Society Islands, just north of Bora Bora. This uninhabited atoll of approximately 1,000 hectares is a truly unspoiled gem where nature reigns supreme and man has left no trace of his passing. A wild sanctuary where you can reconnect with what matters most.

Since its purchase from former notary Marcel Lejeune, the island has belonged to the Polynesian government and remains strictly protected. There are no accommodations, no permanent residents—just a few guardians who watch over the island to preserve its fragile ecosystem. No buildings, no pollution—only the raw, unspoiled beauty of Tupai.

A wild beauty, a heart of nature

Seen from the sky, Tupai is nothing less than a perfect heart, set in a turquoise lagoon of a thousand shades. This unique shape has inspired many poets and lovers, hence its nickname: the island of lovers. As you land on its white sand beaches, you enter a preserved paradise, where silence and isolation are your only company.

No crowds, no noise, just the tranquility of nature. The water is shallow, a double lagoon lined with coconut trees and wild beaches. The island is a nesting site for sea turtles, and seabirds find refuge there.

The island of exclusivity

Tupai n’est accessible qu’à ceux qui obtiennent une autorisation spéciale. C’est une escapade unique, un luxe réservé à ceux qui cherchent une expérience hors du temps, loin de tout. Pour t’y rendre, tu peux choisir de prendre le bateau, pour une traversée de 45 minutes, ou d’opter pour l’hélicoptère, pour une vue spectaculaire sur le lagon et l’atoll.

The Legend of the Heart of the Ocean

Tupai isn’t just a place; it’s also a legend. According to Polynesian traditions, it was dedicated to Pere, the goddess of fire and passion. This heart-shaped island is a place where time seems to stand still and where you can experience exceptional moments, far from the world.
