Barack and Michelle Obama Leave Tahiti as They Continue Post-White House Tropical Tour – PEOPLE.com
Temperature 82 degrees with occasional clouds, and lagoon waters, clear as paradisethe Obamas are wrapping up their month-long vacation in French Polynesia.
On Sunday, Tahiti television station TNTV revealedphotos of Michelle Obama paddleboardingwhile theBarack swam in a Polynesian lagoon.
The pictures were takenon the island of Moorea by fellow vacationers,who spotted the laid-back couple using a small boat for a late morning excursion. They wereescorted by two other boats with their security detail, the station says.
Earlier last week, the former presidentwas seen snorkeling around the outer atoll of Fakarava.
True to his reputation, he was very relaxed, the report says. The former first couple posed for selfies with anyone who asked, though his entourage insisted the photographs beonly for private use, TNTV reports.
The couple have been staying out of the public eye at The Brando, the super-private luxury hotel on Tetiaroa, the South Pacific island bought in 1967 by Marlon Brando as a personal retreat.
Obamais working on his White House memoirs while relaxing at the ultra-private South Pacific resort which boasts white sand beaches, natural forest, and a sea tortoise reserve, the Washington Post reports.
Stressing Brandos desire for an eco-preserving environment, the resort is powered by solar energy and coconut oil. Each of its 35 villas is air conditioned by a sea water system and each has its own private beach and pool.
Voted Best Resort In The World by Cond Nast Traveler in 2016, rates at The Brandorun $2,750 to $13,000 per night. In November, Leonardo DiCaprio celebrated his birthday in the hotel.
Obama was invited to visit French Polynesia by the island nations president, Edouard Fritch, during a White House encounter in August 2016.
Following their post-White Housevacation with Richard Branson in the British Virgin Islands and a March stopover in Hawaii, the Obamas headed to French Polynesia on March 15.
Local authorities refused comment when the Obamas Gulfstream G550 jet touched down on Tahiti at Faaa Airport, March 15, and the former presidents visit to the capital island was brief, involving a quick transfer to much smaller aircraft.
The Brando, 35 miles from Tahiti, is reachable only by two-engined Air Tetiaroa planes or by boat.
Upon return, the former president is expected to resume a somewhat more active schedule. Plans have been announced for him to address a charity dinner in Scotlandon May 26, the British press had reported.
