Introduction to Papeete, French Polynesia
Papeete is the capital and largest city of French Polynesia, located on the northwest coast of Tahiti in the Society Islands of the South Pacific. As the political, economic and cultural center of the overseas territory, Papeete has a population of approximately 26,000 and blends Polynesian traditions with French colonial flair. The city boasts a busy harbor, the Plaza de la Vinaite, and the Papeete Market, known for its sale of black pearls, handicrafts, and tropical fruits. Visitors can visit the Robert Wan Pearl Museum to learn about the history of local pearl farming or head to nearby beaches to experience diving, surfing and other water activities. Papeete International Airport is the main gateway to Tahiti, and its tropical oceanic climate is ideal for year-round travel.
