Where is the Anaa cruise port?

Anaa has no pass into its lagoon, so ships stay offshore and bring passengers ashore by tender to the small pier at Tukuhora, on the ocean side of the village. From the pier, the village centre and town hall are about 900 m away, a walk of about 13 minutes.

Landings depend on the sea, and plans can change with the weather, so check with your cruise line on the day.

Driving to the port

Tukuhora is a small village and is easy to explore on foot from the pier. There is no airport shuttle on the atoll; visitors staying overnight usually arrange transfers with their guesthouse.

Eating in Anaa

Food options in the village are very limited, so it is worth bringing water and snacks ashore.

Where to eat

Tukuhora village

A few small general stores and bakeries near the town hall, a short walk from the pier. There are no restaurants listed in the village itself.

About Anaa

Anaa is a raised coral atoll in the Tuamotu Islands of French Polynesia, about 440 km east of Tahiti. Its ring of low islets has no passes and encloses a shallow, jade-green lagoon so bright that its colour is said to reflect on the clouds. Large blocks of fossilized coral called feo, up to about 3 m high, rise along the shore.

The atoll was the cradle of the Pomare family, Tahiti's royal dynasty, and its Parata warriors once raided many neighbouring atolls. Most people live in the village of Tukuhora, in the northeast of the atoll, and make a living from copra and fishing.

A cyclone destroyed almost everything in 1983, leaving only the old church of Saint-Etienne at Tematahoa standing at the beach's edge. The clear, shallow lagoon is known for fly fishing.

Climate
Hot, humid and breezy all year. Daytime highs are about 30 to 31 C from December to May and about 29 C from June to September, with nights of about 25 to 26 C. The wetter season runs from about November to April, when rain falls on roughly 11 to 16 days a month; December and January are the wettest months, with about 200 mm each. May to October is drier and slightly cooler with steady trade winds, and July and August are the driest months, with about 65 mm each. Rainfall is roughly 1,500 mm a year. These are approximate values from Takaroa, the nearest official weather station, about 325 km to the north.
