Belvedere Lookout
Belvédère d'Opunohu
The classic viewpoint of Mo'orea, at about 240 meters above sea level, overlooking Cook's Bay, Opunohu Bay, and Mont Rotui all at once.
The Belvédère lookout sits at the top of Opunohu Valley, at about 240 meters above sea level. The platform faces Mont Rotui directly, with Cook's Bay on one side and Opunohu Bay on the other, which is the postcard view of Mo'orea. Along the way you pass pineapple fields, an agricultural school, and several ancient ceremonial sites that you can visit on the way. It is free, with a parking lot, but there is no public transport, so you need to drive yourself, rent an electric scooter, or join a 4WD tour. The mountain road has many steep bends, so ride e-scooters with caution. From here you can also hike to Three Coconuts Pass.
