What to do in Tahiti?

Tahiti is a name that inspires people all over the world. From the United States, it seems like a distant paradise. And yet, with our flights, you’ll land directly in French Polynesia’s main airport, just a 5-minute drive from Papeete, the island’s capital.

The city center features a charming, bustling market where you can grab a bite to eat, as well as an exceptional waterfront that offers a first glimpse of Moorea, Tahiti’s sister island. Many downtown hotels let you enjoy the city’s entertainment options day and night.

Outside Papeete, Tahiti offers exceptional natural wonders. Take a tour of the island to enjoy all its landscapes and activities. Among the popular experiences to enjoy in Tahiti, discover:

• Geological and natural landmarks: The Three Waterfalls of Faarumai, the Mara'a Caves, and the Vaipahi Water Gardens.

• The Musée de Tahiti Et Des Îles (museum) which will help you understand the rich history and traditions of Polynesia.

• Exceptional viewpoints such as the Taravao Plateau, which offers a panoramic view of the Tahitian coastline.
