Let’s discover the cultural sites that make Tahiti  and Mo’orea such unique destinations.

Below you’ll find a list of must-visit sites, along with Google maps showing the location of each. 

We set off counter-clockwise to get closer to the ocean. When you come across locals along the way, use the little Tahitian lexicon I’ve prepared for you, to make it easier to talk to them.
