Australasia pacific mapregion includes all of the following countries as its contents:
The French Polynesia region of the Pacific (for example, Tahiti, Moorea, and Bora Bora) is generally the most expensive, and, need we mention, French-speaking?
Fiji and its numerous islands offer the finest value in this ocean, as they are English-speaking, not far from Australia or New Zealand, and well-equipped to cater to backpackers' needs.
French Polynesia's Bora Bora, The Cook Islands' Aitutaki, Tonga's Foa island (Ha'apai islands group), and Fiji's Yasawa Island are probably the most gorgeous, well-sorted (i.e. featuring magnificent resorts, horribly pricey of course) 'paradise' beachesin the South Pacific.

Fiji is the most culturally interesting easily accessible island group, while Rarotonga, Moorea, and Samoa also provide worthwhile cultural tours or shows.
– North Fiji's Somosomo Strait (specialty soft coral, best visibility May-Oct), French Polynesia's Rangiroa atoll (huge cluster of tiny islets northeast of Tahiti, hotels available, best Dec-March for sharks), and Tonga's Ha'apai (terrific caves and canyons) and Vava'u islands (best humpback whales May-Oct). Also, fantastic sailing).

Visiting The South Pacific

The South Pacific islands mapregion is a sequence of magnificent, sunny, relaxing palm-fringed beachessurrounded by multicolored fish, soft coral, that are imprinted into the traveler's subconscious. That perfect blend of Polynesian assets is quite difficult to find these days unless you have a large wad and jet into a five-star bubble, as it was in Gauguin's time a hundred years ago. Even so, you'd be missing out on authentic local culture as well as the joy of finding your own private South Sea paradise.

Conclusion

Fascinated by this Australasia pacific map regional distribution. It is named 'Australasia' because it has its geographical, physiographically, and ecological importance not because it includes ASIA, the continent, and the most important geopolitical importance of the included islands such as Australia, New Zealand, and some neighboring islands.
