Raiatea PearlDive into the fascinating world of Tahitian pearls — a true emblem of Polynesia — and learn the secrets behind their cultivation. Discover each step of the process, from oyster farming to the extraction of these precious gems. You’ll gain insight into the economic importance for the Polynesian islands and, of course, have the opportunity to take home a unique souvenir if you wish!

This historic place is where ancient Polynesian navigators performed ceremonies before their great voyages. You’ll discover the importance of ancestral beliefs and rituals that shaped the daily life of local communities.
-
Discover a fa’apu (traditional Polynesian garden) inspired by permaculture, and immerse yourself in local agricultural life to better understand the many plantations that feed the island’s residents. Watch a demonstration centered around the coconut, from husking to tasting, and learn how this essential fruit is used in everyday Polynesian life. You will also visit a local honey farm, where you will discover the secrets behind Raiatea’s honey production while tasting seasonal fruits and vegetables grown on site. You’ll also have the opportunity to taste and purchase honey and other local artisanal products.

RaiateaEnjoy spectacular views of Raiatea’s lush mountains, green valleys, and crystal-clear lagoon. Traveling by 4x4 to explore the island’s interior (in a vehicle designed for everyone’s comfort) allows you to appreciate the stunning landscapes of the caldera, a remarkable reminder of the island’s volcanic past. You’ll discover local plantations — pineapples, coconut trees, moringa, taro, and more depending on the season — with insightful commentary from your guide.
