As the ancient cultural and spiritual heart of the Society Islands, Raiatea holds a treasure trove of Polynesian history. One highlight is Taputapuatea, a sacred spot on the southeast coastline that was once the gathering place for kings celebrating significant traditions. Explore Uturoa, the quaint main town, often compared to a nostalgic version of Papeete with its charm and simplicity. For adventurers, the Fa’aroa River offers the only boatable waterway in the islands. You can also venture to Mount Temehani—home to the rare tiare apetahi flower, found nowhere else on Earth. Whether it’s the whispers of legends or the wonders of nature, Raiatea invites travelers to discover a world of inspiration.
Raiatea
Nestled in the heart of French Polynesia, Raiatea, often called “The Sacred Island,” is a gem that invites both curiosity and reverence.
