Raivavae

The wild island

Where do you want to go ?

Also called Vavitu and considered the wildest of the islands of French Polynesia, Raivavae is also said to be one of the most beautiful islands in the South Pacific.

Its sublime emerald-colored lagoon and its myriad of Motu (islets) are the refuge of a multitude of seabirds, and its floury white sand beaches represent the jewel of the southern seas.
Raivavae also offers mountainous landscapes where all the greens of Mother Nature’s palette share the lushness.

The quiet life of the inhabitants

The inhabitants of Raivavae lead a peaceful, old-fashioned life in 5 villages with pastel-colored houses: Rairua, Mahanatoa, Anatonu, Vaiuru, and Matotea, where the superficial gives way to the essential.

Activities in Raivavae

The attractions are varied on this enchanting island: swimming in its clear, turquoise waters, walking on the reef, picnic on the Motu and tour of the island by boat. Visiting archaeological sites, such as the Marae Pua Pua Tiare, still retains all the mystery of ancient times, particularly with its stones placed vertically and “the” stone which resonates when struck.

It is also possible to do self-guided or guided hikes, including the one that leads to Mount Hiro, at an altitude of 438 meters, or to the crossing road through flower and tree-lined paths. So many experiences to enjoy to discover this sweet island that is Raivavae.
