World Tourism Day (WTD)

The tourist boards of The Islands of Tahiti are celebrating tourism with a range of events to mark the occasion.

Nuku Hiva, Ua Huka, Fakarava, Raivavae, Rurutu, Tubuai, Huahine, Moorea, Teva i Uta and many others will be welcoming visitors, offering musical and culturalevents, or launching environmental initiatives like the Teva i Uta committee, which is inviting the local population and visitors to a collective clean-up of the Vaima spring, followed by a moment of relaxation and well-being.

The tourist sites of Tahiti and Moorea will also be bustling with activity throughout the day, just a few hours apart. The Mapuru a Paraita market, the James Norman Hall Museum, the Museum of Tahiti and the Islands and the Pearl Museum will be offering free tours and traditional entertainment.

The tourist sites managed by the Tourism Department will also be animated: the 3 Cascades, the Vaipahi Garden and the Tahua Ovini in Faa’a.
