We're going on a cruise of Tahiti and the surrounding islands in October. Does anyone know the location of where the video was shot? Was on Tahiti, Moorea, or another island? Thanks!

Moorea is correct. I think more specifically ...Cook's Bay.

I also read the ship, The Bounty, was filmed at Opunohu Bay...another bay just west of Cook's Bay.

I hope you get to see Bloody Mary's on Bora Bora too.

Here is another quote.

Jimmy Buffett wrote the song One Particular Harbour about seeing Cooks Bay in Moorea for the first time. His quote about the inspiration for the song:
Buffett: "I had my sights set on Tahiti a long time ago and connived my way there through my good friend Tom Moffatt in Hawaii. We went there to play a show to an unknown audience, but that didn't matter. I had still made it to Tahiti. At the airport we were met by an old expatriated American named Hugh Kelly who had run away from home a long time ago. We became instant friends, and he took me to his home on Moorea in the mountains above Cook's Bay. When I looked down at the vista, the song came out as if it had been sitting inside me waiting for the moment."

You may enjoy this. There are some shots of Moorea. Shows the two bays.

A drive around Cook's Bay area.

On the "Tales from Margaritaville" video Jimmy also talks about how they used the Bounty for the video and that he used Mel Gibson's coat for his costume.

Thank you for those answers!

Enjoy your trip. Jimmy talked about filming One Particular Harbour during the Melbourne, Australia show replay.
