16° 44.8′ S · 151° 29.1′ W
The local supermarket on the west-coast road at Tenape/Faafau, about 1 km south of the Uturaerae boatyards. It's the nearest food shopping for crews living aboard on the hard or anchored in the Uturaerae ZMR.
Practical
OSM maps a supermarket named Tenape at this spot on the Route de Ceinture. The 2025 brief says a pharmacy (Pharmacie Temehani) is in Faafau Bay and that Snack Mac Délice Food is within walking distance of the Uturaerae area. Walk south from the CNI and Raiatea Carenage gates; the yard gates close at 6pm. Fish & Blue and Raiatea Lodge are a short walk further south. For a big shop, go to Uturoa (about 6 km; hitchhiking is easy and buses run, per the brief). Hours not published; verify locally.
