Getting To and Around Raiatea
and Taha'a
Le Vahine Island Resort, by E.Pinel |
|
|
|
Raiatea is served by Air Tahiti with frequent
40-minute flights from Papeete and Moorea, and with several
daily 15-minute flights from Huahine and Bora Bora.
Taha'a is served only by water taxi from Raiatea's airport and guests of the Le Taha'a Island Resort and Spa can also arrange for a helicopter transfer from Bora Bora airport. Transport from the airport to the hotels should be arranged by your preferred travel professional or by your hotel.
Ferry service also
connects Raiatea with Bora Bora, Huahine, and Papeete, but runs infrequently. Both Raiatea and
Taha'a have a few taxis, and Raiatea operates the
public transit system, Le Truck, with daily
routes from outlying villages to the town of Uturoa.
The circle-island and interior roads are best explored
through hired excursion or by renting a car. To
explore the lagoon, choose among motorboat, sailboat,
or outrigger canoe rentals for a half or full day.
Yachts ranging from 36 to 51 feet can also be chartered,
with or without captain and crew. |
