See the iconic Teahupoo wave in Tahiti, one of the most powerful waves in the world, up close with this boat trip!

Teahupoo is one of the most famous waves in the world for many reasons, including its razor-sharp coral reef breaks and its incredible consistency in producing huge rolls. Often described by several media outlets as one of the "deadliest waves in the world", it is also the setting for the World Surf League's Teahupoo International Surfing Competition. It is therefore a must-see site in Tahiti!

The Teahupoo wave takes its name from the small village in front of which it crashes on Tahiti Iti (Little Tahiti). It is at the marina of Teahupoo that you will board the boat to see the Teahupoo wave up close. On the way, your captain will tell you more about the spot by sharing some of the stories that have made Teahupoo internationally famous. Depending on the conditions, you may even be able to catch a world-class surf session!

If you want to admire an impressive natural spectacle in Tahiti, don't hesitate and take a boat trip to see the Teahupoo wave!

It was a fantastic experience. The waves were pumping and we had the boat to ourselves.

This was a great way to see the waves up close. Haunui gave a a great tour and was so knowledgeable about the area.

We had a great tour. Even though there were no waves in December, we learned a lot about the surf and break. Our guide (I wish I could remember his name!) was super. Very knowledgeable and a great host. Plus he gave us a great tip about a swelling coming on the north shore! We never would have gone up there, and it was great advice.
