Tahiti, the largest island in French Polynesia, is a true paradise for photographers. With its white sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters and lush landscapes, you'll quickly see why I love shooting here. In this article, I share my 7 favorite photo spots in Tahiti so you can capture the most unforgettable moments of your stay.
Punaauia Beach (PK 18)
PK 18 Beach, in Punaauia, is one of the most photogenic spots in Tahiti. This ribbon of white sand lined with palm trees offers a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean and Moorea in the distance. I love this spot for its crystal-clear waters, fine sand and soft late-afternoon light.
Faarumai Waterfall
Faarumai Waterfall is a must-visit photo spot in Tahiti. Tucked into a lush green setting, it offers a beautiful view of the surroundings. I love coming here for its crystal-clear water and vibrant environment that make every image feel alive.
Intercontinental Tahiti Resort (for hotel guests — otherwise from Faa'a beach)
The Intercontinental Tahiti Resort is an ideal spot for those who love luxury and elegance. This 5-star hotel offers a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean, with lush gardens and crystal-clear pools. If you're not staying there, I'd recommend booking access or shooting from the public Faa'a beach nearby.
Mount Marau
Mount Marau is a must for landscape lovers. From the summit, I promise you a breathtaking panorama over Tahiti and its lush valleys.
Punaauia Beach (south side)
A little further south of PK 18, Punaauia Beach stretches out quietly, lined with palm trees, still with that magical view over the Pacific Ocean. A perfect spot for couples and relaxed moments.
Papenoo River
The Papenoo River is a must-visit photo spot for nature lovers. It winds through a lush natural setting and offers a beautiful view of the surroundings. I love its crystal-clear water and green environment.
Pointe Vénus Lighthouse
The Pointe Vénus Lighthouse is an ideal spot for landscape and history lovers. Perched on a rocky point, it offers a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. I often come here for its historic architecture and stunning panorama.
