Then, the delicate art of LEI making is revealed, allowing everyone to create their own AUTI wreath, a souvenir imbued with the soul of the valley. Offerings to the Polynesian Gods.

The day is approaching its twilight, and it is at the seaside Marae Tainuu that the story takes a new turn. The captivating tale of Pari Pari Fenua rises, blending past and present in a ballet of emotions.

The day culminates in a sunset offering ceremony, a sacred moment honoring life. A time of spiritual connection with the forces of nature and the ancestors.

And so, each element of this Ra’iatea tourism program becomes a page in the book of an unforgettable adventure, where nature, culture and spirituality merge to create memories etched in the heart of every traveler.
