Raivavae is a breathtaking island featuring a large lagoon surrounded by a coral reef composed of 28 motu. The cool climate of the island allows for a variety of agricultural activities, and the inhabitants of the four villages located on the island grow taro, coffee, mango, and banana trees.

Known as "the open sky," Raivavae is the perfect place to immerse oneself in the sounds of the sea birds, the ocean waves, and the gentle breeze. The island is often regarded as one of the most beautiful in the Pacific, and its stunning landscapes truly live up to its reputation as the Garden of Eden. Floating over an emerald lagoon, the island is home to remarkable remnants from the past, including a laughing tiki. Numerous artifacts from an era marked by intense pre-European religious and cultural practices are kept in private collections at Western museums.

The locals of Raivavae have made a conscious decision to preserve the natural beauty of their island and have developed an ecotourism concept that welcomes visitors in a warm and unassuming manner. In addition to the handicrafts made by the islanders, Raivavae is the only place where sewn outriggers are still produced, allowing visitors to step back in time and experience a unique sense of nostalgia while on the island.
