Top Attractions in Taiohae
💡 Don't swim after heavy rain – run-off makes the water cloudy. Best for a paddle or watching the supply ship come in.
💡 Park at the harbour and walk up – the intricate pearl-shell inlays on the altar are easy to miss in bright sunlight.
💡 Arrive before 9am for the freshest breadfruit and ura (spiny lobster). No haggling – prices are already low by French standards.
💡 Go early morning to avoid heat and see the carved turtles and fish in the slanting light – they're on the lower boulder.
💡 Wear proper sandals or trainers – the path is loose gravel. There's no rail at the top, so keep kids close.
