Tahiti Beach

Tahiti Beach is a sand beach in Mayotte with white sand and shallow, turquoise waters facing the Indian Ocean. The shoreline curves gently and is framed by coconut palms that provide natural shade along the water's edge.

Local fishermen have used this beach as a landing point for their traditional outrigger canoes since the earliest settlements in the area. The location evolved from a fishing village base into a popular swimming destination while maintaining its maritime character.

The beach is a social gathering point where locals come to celebrate holidays and share time with family and friends. People here maintain a strong connection to the sea that shapes much of their daily life.

The beach can be reached via a paved road connected to Mayotte's main highway, making it relatively easy to reach by car. Visitors should prepare for intense sun and remember that tides affect water access and depth throughout the day.

At low tide, natural rock pools form where visitors can watch tropical fish swimming in their natural setting. These hidden pools offer a close-up look at reef life without needing diving equipment.
