- If someone mentions PK 15, this is a unit of measurement meaning "Kilometer Point." Point 0 starts from the Papeete Cathedral and extends to the East or West.
- The currency is the Pacific Franc or XPF.
- On the other side of the world, people use "tu" instead of "vous"!
- The time difference is -11 hours in winter, and -12 hours in summer!
- Dry season from April to October, Rainy season from November to March.
Cultural side
Polynesian culture is a heritage from their Ma'ohi ancestors. Let us guide you through some traditions...
- In Tahiti, everyone uses informal address. Formal address is rare!
- Music, dance, flowers, surfing, and tattoos—that's Polynesia.
- Tahitians are extremely generous, spontaneous, friendly, and show great hospitality to travelers.
- The Tahitian language, or more precisely Reo Maohi, has only 17 letters in its alphabet. The "U" is pronounced "oo", the "E" as "ay", the "H" is aspirated, and the "R" is rolled.
On the culinary side
Polynesia is a true Garden of Eden where European and Asian influences blend with traditional elements to offer exceptional flavors using local fruits, vegetables, and fish.
- The quintessential authentic dish: Tahitian-style raw fish
- Chicken fafa (with local spinach)
- Poe banane, a delicious mix of cassava, bananas, and coconut milk.
- Chao mein, a succulent noodle dish with typical Asian origins.
- Coconut oil, vanilla, Uru flour... Tahiti is brimming with culinary treasures.
