Click&BoatBoating on Raiatea
Raiatea and Taha’a share a single lagoon enclosed by a reef, so you can cruise between the two islands on sheltered water. Days mix snorkelling in shallow coral channels, visits to vanilla and pearl farms on Taha’a and stops at Raiatea’s cultural sites.
Where to go by boat
Coral Garden
Shallow channel between two motu off Taha’a, where you drift over coral among shoals of fish.
Taputapuatea
UNESCO-listed marae on Raiatea, one of the most sacred sites in Polynesia.
Faaroa River
Described as the only navigable river in French Polynesia, winding into Raiatea’s green interior.
Taha’a
The ‘vanilla island’, with plantations and pearl farms open to visitors.
Tip: Taha’a has no airport, so boats are the way to reach it; stay inside the marked channels when crossing the lagoon.
