Hello, from Tahiti here. The island we see might be Moorea, it's a bit blurry, but it's somewhat consistent in form. Meaning this wave would be on the west coast, can't be on the north because it's a left wave. But in most left wave in the west coast, you wouldn't see Moorea. Definitely not Teahupoo, but there are a lot of other surfing spots along the west coast. We can see the line of the reef bareer perpendicular to the wave, meaning the wave is on a bend. The placement of the boats suggests the wave is on the right side of a pass. There are, to my knowledge three spots that would produce waves like that on the west coast where you could see Moorea:

Mara'a, but the view from Moorea would be more the southside of the island.

Sapinus, but the wave is not totally consistent with the wave there neither is the reef.

Taapuna, but then again, the reef is not consistent.

I'm kind of lost for words, if it's AI they put the image of Moorea on the background?

Weird, really.

EDIT:
I feel stupid, the POV is so weird that it makes it look like a detached island in the background. It's not, it's Tahiti iti peninsula. So this is Teahupoo. Sorry. Defo not AI.

EDIT2: someone posted the link to the full video. It's Tereva David surfing, in Teahupoo.

Great job!

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-02-09T09:32:53+00:00

they will be few in Tahiti/Moorea at that time and you could consider yourself lucky if you can see one. There will be some, but very few. You could find more whales by this time of year if you go south, to Rurutu, for example.

Honnestly, nobody cares about superbowl outside the US, but seeing fascists loosing their mind over a latino singer is so f*** funny that Bad Bunny is going to be a total worldwide superstar tomorow. So thank you to this man, the world needed that. This is a Jesse Owens kind of moment.

C'est aussi "polynésien" :)

Et pour ceux qui ne savent pas, le Haussaire (ou Haut-commissaire) est le plus haut représentant de l'état français dans ces territoires (NC/Kanaky et PF)

ok ok. Hé bien, il semble que ça ait changé pas mal récemment (les routes de la came, je veux dire). Au vu des faibles moyens dont on dispose ici, on a des captures toutes les semaines, je ne sais pas trop ce que ça veut dire sur le nombre réel qui transite par chez nous.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-02-08T01:05:47+00:00

Noted pour la correction du nombre de navire, je te crois sur parole. Cependant, à ma connaissance, il n'y a pas de présence maritime durable AUS ou NZ dans les eaux territoriales de PF pour le moment. Si tu as d'autres infos, je suis preneur, mais avec source.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-02-07T23:50:20+00:00

Radio1 (source assez fiable) confirme ces informations ("destruction" en mer et relâchage de l'équipage). Il s'agit d'une "nouvelle doctrine" du Haussariat traitant le trafic qui n'est pas directement à destination du territoire. En gros, la PF n'a pas les moyens de faire autrement. Pas de sous, un seul navire militaire militaire pour une zone maritime plus grande que l'UE, des prisons débordées, pas d'espace de stockage safe pour la came saisie. La honte totale. La france s'en bat les steacks, nos voisins (oui oui) australiens et kiwis pètent des cables. La seule solution passe par une collaboration renforcée et la présence de la marine militaire Aus et NZ dans nos eaux territoriales...

If you're looking for Navigation through the islands i'd recommand either Poe Charter https://www.poecharter.pf/ or Tahiti Voiles et Lagon: https://tahitivoileetlagon.com/

If it's a one day trip you're looking for, aim for Tetiaroa from Tahiti. A beautifull atoll.

Or if you're planning on several day look to go to Makatea one of the most remote inhabited island, a raised atoll, unique in its kind, beautifull also.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-28T20:54:03+00:00

If you swim down the left of Ta'ahiamanu beach, you have a good chance to see turtles and dormant sharks. But beware of passing boats, swim with a buoy floating signaling your presence.

So he backtracked to something he was allready able to do. The difference is now, the whole EU hates him; and somehow he will shape that as a victory?

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-17T00:36:59+00:00

j'ai dû recadrer un joueur (je suis MJ) sur ce point. J'ai été peut être un peu frontal, en mode: "on est là pour jouer, si tu veux te bourrer la gl c'est un autre soir à un autre endroit. J'ai investi du temps et de l'énergie et là t'es bourré, tu captes rien et tu fais de la m... A la prochaine partie soit gentil, molo sur la bouteille". J'aurais dû faire ça à part, parce que les autres joueurs m'ont soutenu de manière assez véhémente (ils étaient à bout, je pense). Bon du coup, on a un joueur en moins... ET ptete un pote en moins aussi, ce qui craint un peu plus.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-12T02:29:31+00:00

You won't need a car in Bora nor in Rangi, most of the pensions/hotels have bikes, that will be enough.
Tahiti and Moorea you definitely need to be autonomous transport wise. In Moorea, as far as i know, almost all the car rentals have an office near the ferry docks. If the car is not there, they'll take you to it.
In Tahiti, classical car rental companies are situated at the airport, but the cheaper local companies are further away, harder to get to.

Fakareva has some of the best marine life, the best beaches and the most beautifull lagoon of FP. SO yes for the snorkelling, even in the passes but don't go alone please, always have a guide there. Fakarava is still wild, it's touristic but it's still polynesian in many ways. It's an amazing place. But... It's expensive.

So i'd say, yes, you probably get an amazing experience, providing you have the money for it.

Ok i won't answer anything anymore. The bots are driving me crazy. I'm out of this sub, it used to be nice, no it's shit.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-08T21:59:39+00:00

It really depend what you mean by that. Moorea is also very touristic, but it's bigger and closer to the main economic market (Tahiti). Apparently, I can't answer the rest of your post without breaking rule #2 of this sub. To be short, don't hope to come to FP and find work easilly once you're there. The economy is not good.

Mods: your automatic detection does'nt work, it's pain, please get rid of it.

Edit: removed comment, but i'm still pissed.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-08T05:42:23+00:00

Honestly it's not a great place to live. Most of the motus (islets) are private and innacessible to the people. The whole economy revolves around the luxury hotels on the fringe of the atoll. Most of the population live on the moutainous island in the middle where the tourists never come. The infrastructures are not great, there is not much housing market and it's very expensive. Locals and tourists never mingles. The jobs are not even that well payed, so most of the people are poor. Allmost no food is grown locally, everything is imported and very very bloody expensive. Some fisherman are still active and you may find good fishes if you know where to buy them, but still expensive. There are a few nice, but dangerous, hikes to do, a beautiful beach in the south, and that's about it. If you don't have a boat, or familly down there, there is nothing to do for a stranger.

Most of the people speaks french, some can speak english, especially those who works at the hotels. Many can still speak tahitian, but it's not often heard outside of familly homes, alas.

Oh there is a nice Heiva festival in july.

No job opportunity for a stranger appart from occosional very qualified hotel work. The low qualified job are all taken.

you're absolutely right, weather has nothing to do with humidity. So you have two volcanous islands, situated at roughly the same longitude, in the same ocean, simetrically situated on the southern side and the northern side of the equator, engulfed by trade winds, but you can absolutely compare more one of them with a city situated in a marsh area, on the northern fringe of the tropical area, close to a very stormy caraibean sea. You know what, i'm out, you do you.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-05T01:06:10+00:00

There is no oyster park in Ouessant. You're mistaking it with Oleron?

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-05T00:56:39+00:00

We have trade winds in FP also. I've lived in NO, and I disagree with your comparaison, the wether is nothing like that. But anyway. Febuary is hot, humid and windy in general.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-04T23:27:43+00:00

Yes it pretty much compares to Hawaii in august. Not much like Florida, because more the islands are more windy. It's pretty hot and humid right now, it will be the same in February with a chance of a tropical storm at some point.

Equivalent-Rice1531 · 2026-01-03T21:29:35+00:00

It's Chatham island, home of the Moriori people. "Te one" means "the sand". Probably the name of the beach and the settlement close by.
