Taiohae

Taiohae is the administrative center of the islands. Its beautiful circular bay was a popular anchoring place for whalers.More bays are located directly next to Taiohae Bay.The town's black sand beach proves the island's volcanic origin.
The French administrator's residence is the oldest European building in French Polynesia. On our first trip, we were invited there for Bastille Day.
