Activities :

The hotel is host to a number of excursions, each of which is more tempting than the next. The two sister islands: Raiatea and Taha'a are unique in that they are two high islands trapped in an immense lagoon and protected by a common barrier reef. They offer 259 square kms of land to be explored on foot, on horseback or by jeep.

Le Hawaiki Nui Raiatea boasts the only navigable river in French Polynesia . . . the Apoo Ma'u in the Bay of Faaroa. Sacred Raiatea and Taha'a, the island of vanilla, are choice destinations for both snorkeling and scuba diving. There are more than 50 cataloged sites for both beginner and experienced divers alike.

In addition to the spectacular coral drop offs, abundant underwater plant and animal life, there are several wrecks to visit, such as the Nordby, a 57 ton schooner (50m long) which sank in 1900 and can be found directly in front of the RAIATEA HAWAIKI NUI HOTEL and is accessible from its boat docks.

A visit to the magical universe of the sister island: Taha'a, promises a timeless encounter with Polynesia of yesterday. The journey in outrigger canoe allows time to pass slowly, making possible a fragile link between an often inaccessible Polynesian lifestyle and the visitor to this remote world. This excursion gives time the opportunity to discover the feeling of authenticity by revealing little by little the smallest of nuances which are magic in their own.

Your stay at the RAIATEA HAWAIKI NUI HOTEL will be a little bit like discovering the soul of the ancient Polynesians, the navigators and conquerors who continue to reign among these Leeward Islands.
