Your Papeete tour itinerary

Your full-day tour begins with pickup from your hotel, port, or airport. First, visit Marae Arahurahu, a sacred Polynesian site surrounded by tropical greenery. Then explore the peaceful Maraa Grotto, a natural freshwater cave. Stop at Taharuu black sand beach to admire the waves and striking volcanic sand. Continue to the serene Vaipahi Water Garden, with waterfalls and exotic plants. Afterward, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant with ocean views. In the afternoon, explore Tahiti Iti, the peninsula — choosing between a visit to Teahupoo, famous for its legendary wave (and optional boat ride), or the Taravao lookout, offering panoramic island views. Next, stop at Faaone Waterfall, a hidden natural gem, then head to the impressive Faarumai Waterfalls for a short forest walk.
