💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~11.4 hours of daylight in August.
- The dry trades: Teahupo'o's famous wave performs for the pros, humpbacks calve in Moorea's lagoon — swim-with permits run to October — and the Heiva festival fills July with drums.
- Light days: day 2, day 4 have one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill them — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
