Cheap Flights to Papeete Tahiti, French Polynesia from New Zealand

 

 

Papeete is the center of commerce and administrative seat of the French Polynesian Islands. It is located in Tahiti, which is the most densely populated in the region. Water sports, cruises, deep-sea fishing, shark feeding, horseback riding and hiking are key activities in and around Papeete.

Perhaps the main highlight in all of Papeete remains to be the Municipal Market. The place comes alive especially during Sunday mornings when locals do their shopping. The best time to visit, however, is in the afternoon when the freshest catch of the day is hauled onto the market stalls. Different types of vessels drop anchor at Papeete’s waterfront, from local fishing boats to luxury yachts from around the world. The Black Pearl Museum and Paofai Protestant Church are close by. The city’s Gauguin Museum showcases the artist’s works, which were mostly created during his stay in French Polynesia. It is housed within the lush Harrison Smith Botanical Gardens.

Leisure options abound in and around Papeete. Safari treks into the interior would lead to deep valleys, waterfalls, glistening lakes and mountains. This tour takes the visitor to the uninhabited parts of Tahiti. Diving around the island is diverse with sights under the sea such as coral walls, sunken ships and oceanic drop-offs. For surfing, head to Teahupoo, Taapuna and Papara for the best waves.

Papeete is one of the best weekend retreats from Auckland, being only around 4 hours away by plane. If coming from Christchurch or Wellington, travel time is less than 8 hours. Reserve flights from carriers such as Air Tahiti Nui, Air New Zealand, Qantas Airways and American Airlines.
