Tahiti — Queen of the Pacific

About Tahiti

Tahiti is the largest of the 118 islands and atolls that comprise French Polynesia and it features the only international airport. Papeete is the capital city and commercial hub of French Polynesia. Located on the waterfront, Vai’ete Square is where gourmet catering trucks (the “roulottes”) settle at night to offer delicious, great value meals.

The colourful market is close by, offering local food, hand-made crafts and souvenirs. Tahiti is an island of hidden treasures – from surfing on the west coast, to lush waterfalls, to the history in the Paul Gauguin museum.
