#Marae in French #Polynesia are ancient spaces reserved for ceremonial, social, and religious activities. Most were destroyed, but you can visit some restored marae and experience these sites. Do you like exploring ancient ceremonial sites? https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Tahiti/#taata

A 4WD tour through the rugged interior of #Tahiti in French #Polynesia with its #rainforests is a wonderful experience. We saw more than 100 #waterfalls after it had rained the day before. Did you do this tour? https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Tahiti/#papenoo

50 Years Ago Today, Hōkūleʻa Makes Landfall In Papeʻete, Tahiti. - Hōkūleʻa
50 years ago today, Hōkūleʻa’s maiden voyage to Tahiti ended with a greeting by an estimated 17,000 people at Papeʻete. Guided by Master Navigator Mau Piailug of Satawal, Micronesia, this was the first voyage of a Polynesian long-distance deep-sea voyaging canoe in 600 years. What began as a bold vision to prove the voyaging achievements of our ancestors became a defining moment for Hawaiʻi and all of Polynesia.
