approx: placed in Rikitea village from the compendium's walking directions relative to the main dock and St Michael Cathedral (Wikipedia position); expect an error of up to about 300 m.

Good meat, liquor, snacks and cheese, and you may be allowed behind the counter when it is quiet. Reserve baguettes the day before. James, who works here, speaks good English, is very cruiser-friendly and has been recommended for welding. Government-subsidised 'red label' staples are the best value in every Rikitea shop.
