Relais Tikehau beach

Relais Tikehau is a private motu (island) in the very south of Tikehau atoll, French Polynesia. It is located near the airport. This is a classic tropical paradise - with picturesque palms. It is also possible to walk to the neighboring uninhabited motus. Unfortunately, entry into the water is mostly rocky. The hotel sometimes make "traditional" shows playing Polynesian guitar. It's not very interesting, but still pretty nice. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]
