Point Venus, so named by Cook in 1769 during his first mission to Tahiti, is a historic site: it is also where the Europeans first landed in 1767 (Samuel Wallis and his Dolphin). Today, it is home to Tahiti's only lighthouse. The superb black sandy beach is the ideal meeting place for swimmers, who come together on weekends to sunbathe during the day or celebrate at night! The sand is extremely fine.

This is a very nice place to go while visiting Tahiti. You can find there the historical lighthouse and the monument commemorating the expedition of James Cook to observe the 1769 Transit of Venus. There is also a playground and the beach is beautiful, so you can stay there and have fun with your children.

Un superbe endroit pour se baigner mais également pour aller voir le coucher de soleil... La plage, la lumière et la vue sont extraordinaires !
Ambiance familiale décontractée, parking très facile, il y a un petit snack mais souvent fermé...

La plage la plus emblématique de Tahiti, car baignée de sable noir, issue de l'érosion des roches volcaniques. Par ailleurs, site historique de premier plan, associé à James Cook. Enfin, son phare historique rend le lieu très agréable, pour un pique-nique.
