Cemetery and memorial to visit
3.5/5

Read moreOriginally built for Queen Pomare IV two years after her death, this tomb was in fact requisitioned by her son, renowned for his ingratitude. Located on Pointe Outuaiaiai, this large coral building was completed in 1879 in place of a monumental church built in 1815 by his ancestor King Pomare II, a Christian convert. Queen Pomare IV, after half a century of reign, was given her own tomb next to the church, but her son Pomare V had no qualms about removing her ashes and being buried here in 1891.

BEACH OF THE TOMB OF KING POMARÉ V
Natural site to discover
