Travel Tips from people who've been to Papeete
Moorea is one os the mos beautiful Island of the "iles de la société"... Good tip? (+1) Papeete, capital of French Polynesia, meaning waterbasket in Tahitian (pape=water, ete=basket, recipient), is a bustling little city lost in the Pacific. Entry point to French Polynesia, most tourist head on to other islands and don't "waste" much of their time in Papeete. Paradise or city like any other? I would rather opt for city like any other set in Paradise. You can find a number of bars and restaurants, above all the famous roulottes on the main square as well as the big covered market of Papeete (Mapuru a Paraita), worth a visit, boasting local handicraft, flowers and food of any kind. A good place to have a chat with locals.
Ia ora na ( Hello in Tahitian) Good tip? (0) Papeete ou tahiti, l'ile de rêve par excellence ?

Outre le faite que cette île est bel et bien de plus en plus urbanisée, je vous conseil particulierement de louer un 4*4 pour sortir du bitume et s'évader dans les sentiers battus .Si vous êtes photographes, c'est le meilleur moyen de faire les plus belles photos au monde . Pour accroitre encore plus ce plaisir, je vous conseillle vivement de partir en chaloupe avec des polynesiens . La pêche à lancienne, le lever du soleil, les dauphins, baleines et autres sauront combler vos objectifs !! Good tip? (0)
