the majority of the people take the boat. Very comfortable and does not take that long to get to Moorea. You can see Moorea clearly from the port as you leave on the boat.--its that close. Make sure you look down at the water when you are on the boat--it is some of the most deep blue, almost purple water you have ever seen.
From the port in Moorea--your hotel will pick you up anyway (not a big Island-easy to get a ride to where ever you are going).
the flight, I swear only take like 7 minutes--thats how close the islands are.
oh and by the way--one of those planes crashed in 2007.

take the boat--enjoy the ride--and dont pass up the fresh pinneaple and coconut being sold on the docks when you get to Moorea.
