Raiatea

Our next stop after Huahini was Raiatea.

Like most of the Societies, Raiatea is volcanic with a surrounding barrier reef with a few passes in to the lagoon side. We entered thru Passe Toamaro and anchored off the small motu of the same name adjacent to the pass.

Later in the day, we moved to Baie Vaiaau to spend the night and enjoyed a bit of time in the water. Next day we had scheduled paddle boarding on one of the few rivers in French Polynesia that supports such activities. More on that next time.
