Rikitea is the capital of the Gambier Islands in French Polynesia, located deep in the South Pacific and part of the French Overseas Collective. This peaceful town is famous for its well-preserved Marau cultural sites, notably the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Marae Temake, with its basalt altar and stone carvings that bear witness to the ancient beliefs and civilizations of Polynesia. Surrounded by turquoise coral lagoons and lush green mountains, Rikitea not only showcases the unique natural beauty of French Polynesia, but also blends Polynesian traditions with French flair, making it an ideal destination for exploring the people and nature of the South Pacific.
