Carrefour Punaauia (by Marina Taina)
17° 35.0′ S · 149° 36.8′ W · approximate
The big Carrefour hypermarket within walking distance of Marina Taina, where most cruisers do the big provisioning run before the Leewards or a Pacific passage.
Practical
Approximate: placed just north-east of the Marina Taina gate, from Noonsite's 'easy walking distance, out of the gate towards the airport'. Confirm on arrival. There is a fruit and veg stall on the way. Get a free trolley token at customer service, and you can wheel the trolley back to the marina (Noonsite cruiser report, Dec 2022). Beer and wine are cheaper here than at downtown supermarkets (2019 report). Carrefour closes on Sunday afternoon. ATMs nearby. Polynesian Trading Co. (Kirkland/Costco products) is between the airport and Taina near the roundabout (-17.566239, -149.614477; +689 40 45 62 63).
