Top-Rated Raiatea Shore Excursions

Ships dock at Uturoa, Raiatea’s small main town, a quieter stop than its better-known neighbors. The island shares a lagoon with Tahaʻa, known for vanilla farms and coral gardens, and Taputapuātea, a sacred marae on the southeast coast, is one of the most important cultural sites in Polynesia.
