Getting There

Travelling to Tahiti

Tahiti is 5000 miles from the nearest continent. To get to the islands you will need to fly to Faa’a International Airport. A flight to Tahiti will take you 8 hrs from Los Angeles and 9 hours from Sydney. The check-in marina is a further 1 hour 'hopper flight' from the main airport.

Flights

Raiatea Airport (RFP) is the closest airport to the starting marina. You will need to fly via Faa’a International Airport (PPT) to get there.

• Step 1 - fly to Faa'a International Airport (PPT) on the Island of Pape'ete.
• Step 2 - fly to Raiatea Airport (RFP) on the Island of Raiatea.

We recommend booking flights to Raiatea from LAX with Air Tahiti Nui, the national carrier. With daily flights from LAX and Paris, the inflight service and entertainment will kick your trip off with an authentic Polynesian feel.

For the short flight from Papa'ete to Raiatea we recommend using Air Tahiti - https://www.airtahiti.com/

Visas

Most nationalities do not require a visa to visit, however we recommend using VisaHQ to find out if you require any visas to enter the country - www.visahq.co.uk

Please note: All travellers flying through the United States must also comply with any U.S. entry requirements.

Getting to your marina

We will be using two marinas, both are less than 2km from the airport in a short taxi journey. Please check your booking for your starting marina.
