Papeete, on Tahiti, is the capital of French Polynesia, a group of islands in the South Pacific. Papeete is a vibrant and multicultural city with busy boulevards and a bustling harbor. The downtown municipal market, Le Marché, is an exciting place to purchase all things Tahiti including vanilla beans, monoi oil and colorful pareos. Just down the street at Le Centre Vaima is the Robert Wan Pearl Museum, which is a great place to start if you’re hoping to purchase a Tahitian black pearl during your stay.
