The island's 2,950 inhabitants live in several villages, the main one being Taiohae, on the south coast, in the shadow of Mount Muake. Located opposite the airport, the inevitable crossing of the island will offer you a first breathtaking sight. Only one hour today of a sinuous way in the middle of the Caribbean pines and the arborescent ferns, in 4x4, on a concreted track in side of cliff, will be indeed necessary to reach it. In a paradisiacal site, this village seems at first sight anachronistic compared to the eternal majesty of the landscapes which surround it: hotels, pensions, restaurants, shops, gas station... Modern civilization is well present there, Internet and even optical fibre in head thanks to the recent setting in service of the underwater cable Natitua! It is certainly here that you will drop your bags for a few days, unless you dare to move away from this "urban" center to adopt a pension in the heart of nature, in the remote villages of the valleys.
