The
Piano Bar opens at about 10 PM, and generally
gets busier right around midnight. You’ll
find mainly locals there and the crowd tends to
be primarily gay and lesbian on the weekends.
However, the Piano Bar is better known on the
island and to frequent visitors for their loyal
clientele known as mahu or rae rae (visit FAQs
for more information).
Although there is not much nightlife on the outer
islands, these islands do offer a wonderful vacation
experience for couples. Tahiti offers a low-key,
tranquil vacation experience; it’s truly
best experienced with your lover or some great
friends.
That being said – it is also true that
this vacation paradise is exactly what you make
of it. Many of the resorts, restaurants, and small
bar on the outer islands can be quite a bit of
fun. Although none of the bars are specifically
for the lesbian and gay community, they are very
gay friendly. You may find while visiting the
islands of Tahiti that, as a couple, you’re
more relaxed and comfortable than you are compared
to your own neighborhood back home.
There are plenty of activities to keep you busy
during the day, most of which are concentrated
in or around the lagoons: wake boarding, jet skiing,
parasailing, shark and ray feeding, helicopter
tours, windsurfing, scuba diving, snorkeling.
However, everything tends to close up pretty early
in the evening, and you’ll find that you
and your lover will retire to your overwater bungalow
early. The only exception to this is the island
of Tahiti itself.
