Most visitors come to Huahine by plane. The direct flight from Tahiti-Faa’a International Airport takes about 40 minutes and you’ll have a superb view of Moorea on the way. You can also fly from Bora Bora, Raiatea or Moorea, which takes from 20 to 35 minutes. There is the option of a passenger ferry which takes about 4 hours. And if money’s no object, a helicopter company in Tahiti will be delighted to fly you there.
