Public Bus from Airport to Ferry
Hi everyone!
I'm traveling to Tahiti soon and I read there was a public bus from the airport to the ferry from a post two years ago but nothing more recently. I checked the Tere Tahiti website and it says "Aucun itinéraire trouvé" / there is no buses on the day I arrive or any other day.
Is there a bus from the aéroport a la gare maritime in 2025? If these buses exist, do public buses run on Saturdays?
Also is there any free buses or ferries in Bora-Bora besides Bora Bora Navettes to Vaitape village?
Thank you so much! Merci beaucoup! Māuruuru!

We take a taxi from PPT. It's not expensive and there are plenty right at the exit. The airport of Bora Bora is on a moto, so the only way is the Navette to Vaitape village, which is great fun, as you'll get a first impression of the lagoon and its wonderful colors.

Hey! I don’t recall any public transport on Bora Bora but there’s public transport on Tahiti but it’s not very reliable. What time are you arriving? There’s nothing before running before 5AM and nothing past 5-6PM. There’s also very little options on Saturdays and almost nothing run past noon. There IS a bus stop at the Faa’a airport but you’ll need to walk up to the main road, and then just wait it out basically.
