Rimatara Travel Guide
French Polynesia
Rimatara is a small island community in French Polynesia, with a population of 879. It sits in the tropical South Pacific and offers a quieter, less urban base than French Polynesia’s larger population centres.
Travellers arrive through Rimatara Airport, also known by its code RMT. There are no named notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so plan around the island’s small-community setting rather than expecting a cluster of developed beach resorts.
