Arahoho Blowhole

The view of the blow hole was around a cliff and closed due to possible rock slides. The black beach was gorgeous and they have bath and restrooms open to public.

Beautiful location Looks like you need to come at high tide to get that blow hole to really pop so you can see the high powered mist. There is nice park and walk after the blowhole. The parking 🅿️ is tight. The black beach ⛱️ is truly amazing to look at. It makes the water black too. It's free parking no need to pay for anything

Cool thing to see! Doesn’t take a ton of time. Limited parking available but the entrance to the three waterfalls is across the street so you can see both attractions.

You may think it’s just a hole in the ground and you may even be tempted to skip Arahoho Blowhole on your trip around Tahiti, but TRUST ME when I say this: this is one of the coolest things you will see on your entire trip!! This is equal to any of the waterfalls, beaches, and other places on the islands of French Polynesia! I have never seen anything like it - waves slam into the rocks down at sea level, and this narrow hole channels the pressure all the way up to where you are standing! It’s like a tube that blasts air out and it is POWERFUL! It shoots wind close to hurricane force, and if you got too close, you would definitely blow over from the force! It is loud too, so be prepared!!! I 100% recommend stopping here along your drive - it is free and entirely worth a few minutes of your time. There is almost no walking required, and there is also a nice park attached to the Blowhole area where you can have a nice view of the ocean as well as the sea creatures on the rocks below! One unique phenomenon that you might spot when you visit is these little fish things that hop all across the rocks near the bottom entrance of the blowhole. It is weird, and I have never seen anything like it before. Maybe you know why they are? 🤔

The blowhole is a small opening near the wall of the rock face that shoots out a mist of seawater in gusts with a loud whoosh sound. Around the blowhole also involves a short paved trail along the coast. The black sand beach is also fantastic to relax in. If you walk to the edge of the beach towards the east/south side, there is a freshwater river that feeds in to the ocean which is a very unique feeling with the intersection of cold stream fresh water and warm salty ocean water. Parking is extremely difficult but we were lucky and was able to get a spot right as someone left.

WE stopped here as we drove around the island of Tahiti. It is a nice spot to stop and rest. Shady, with nice restrooms. You are not able to see the blowhole they have it fenced off. You are able to watch the ocean or visit the gift shops there.

Along NE coast on drive around island. Very small parking lot with maybe 5 spots. There is a little park that wraps around both sides of the tunnel the road passes through. Pretty park and beautiful views along the coast and black sand beach. Waterfalls are just across and down the street.

This is a very famous touris attraction. There is nothing offensive here or in this review. Just a wonderful view of a natural wonder. This is the infamouse name removed. There is no charge. But parking can be a problem at times. This is a natural wonder with the sea waves crashing and forcing air and spraying water. There are restrooms available. There is a gift shop. There is a black sand beach to enjoy. This is an easy walk.
