Rangiroa Fresh Water Card (Avatoru Mairie)

14° 56.5′ S · 147° 42.4′ W · approximate

Rangiroa's way of selling fresh water to visitors: buy a prepaid card for a set number of litres at the town hall in Avatoru.

Practical

Approx: placed on the Avatoru village node in OpenStreetMap; the exact mairie office location was not verified. Not expensive per the compendium; cruisers without a watermaker rented a car for half a day to haul jerry cans. Noonsite notes there is no public tap and water may be bought at some hotels or dive centres if there is no shortage. Collect rainwater whenever you can.

Best for

Topping up water without a watermaker
