Arahoho Blowhole

Around Tahiti Nui


When the swell is big enough, huge sprays of water shoot out from the trou du souffleur (blowhole) in a little park by the road just after the tunnel at PK22, coming from Pape’ete. The blowhole is at the end of the path and there’s a small parking lot. Just past the blowhole is a fine sliver of black-sand beach, nice for a picnic.
