Location: Vahine Island on Motu Tu Vahine, Taha

Located in the heart of the of the Society Islands Archipelago, in close proximity to Tahaa, the Vanilla Island, lies Motu Tu Vahine, an authentically Polynesian island which you will have the opportunity to discover. Contrary to most over touted tourist destinations, Tahaa has managed to stay refreshingly real, unadulterated and preserved: pearl farms, traditional vanilla plantations, copra farming, and fishing constitute it's principal activities and resources. Tahaa is an island full of legends and secrets to reveal to the visitor who seeks to know more about the magic of Polynesia.

To visit us at Vahine Island, fly roundtrip to RAIATEA - PAPEETE/RAIATEA/PAPEETE - for 27.600 XPF per person, all taxes included on
Air Tahiti (prices are subject to change at any time by Air Tahiti without notice.). Air Tahiti offers six to ten daily flights between 6:00 am and 7:30 pm.

Several flights a day on Air Tahiti serve as links from Raiatea to the other islands and vice versa: Bora Bora (10min), Papeete (40min) and Huahine (15min).

Boat Ride from Raiatea Airport to Vahine Island

Upon your arrival in Raiatea, we will greet you at the airport and bring you to Vahine Island, a 30 minute ride across the shared lagoon of Raiatea and Tahaa in our comfortable boat.
PLEASE NOTE: Our boat is safe and comfortable but night navigation is dangerous on the Polynesian lagoons, numerous coral "potatoes" fishing boats without lights, and it is the worst when windy. These are the times that we operate the boat transfers to Raiatea airport, except, some late or earlier flights (Maupiti or Huahine, delayed, schedule modified…). Let us know.
