Getting around French Polynesia
Air Tahiti flies between islands, with multi-island passes; Aremiti ferries reach Moorea in 30–45 minutes. Tahiti's buses are limited and stop early; rent a car or scooter.
Key facts
- Driving: on the right. Foreign licences are valid for a year after arrival; carry an IDP too, as many rental firms require one.
