Plage de Tahitienne and Plage de Graniers offer quieter alternatives to the main beaches. Visit early morning or late afternoon for fewer tourists and better swimming conditions.

Use local buses, water taxis, or scooter rentals. Parking is extremely expensive and difficult in July-August. Walking the old town is also very pleasant and manageable.

Upscale restaurants require smart casual or formal wear. Nightclubs have strict dress codes: no sportswear, flip-flops, or athletic shoes. Men should wear collared shirts and closed-toe shoes.
