I’ve heard Chikungunya is on the rise in parts of Asia and that there are two vaccines available. Is it worth trying to get one of them before my trip in November?

Are there any other vaccines that I should plan for? Or medicines that I should plan to bring that are hard to get or uncommon/expensive in Tahiti?

Does anyone have any experiences or stories to share on medical mishaps, stomach issues, etc? Of course any meal or dish has risks, but being so remote and trying to maximize my time in Tahiti, I’d rather be over prepared than have any regrets! Thank you!

Just an appreciation post… Been two months since my honeymoon and I am still thinking about the deliciousness of this drink…. I would pay premium for delivery to the states I can’t find it anywhere 😭

We spent 5 days in Moorea and then 6 in Bora Bora - ended up buying 7 boxes of this stuff to bring to Bora Bora and wish I bought more for the way home!

La orana, I am visiting bora bora and learning a bit of Tahitian. I have been speaking a small amount to some locals and they have been teaching me more. At the end of my trip, how might I say I am grateful for them? Or is there some saying I can use as a sentimental goodbye? Mauru’uru !

Apparently Le Lezard is all booked for the entire week. Are there any other recommended restaurants that need reservations? Are most just walk-in for dinner?

We do have coco beach reservations for lunch.

Thank you!

Hi all coming up on a trip at the Westin, I’ll be staying in an OWB. I was curious about what your thoughts were about fishing from my OWB. I plan on doing catch and release. Has anyone done? It is there policies that forbid it?
