Marquesas Islands from Tahiti

Marquesas Pass

By Normand Schafer, Far & Away Adventures — South Pacific travel specialist since 1996.

The Marquesas Pass flies you from Tahiti to the two main Marquesas islands, Nuku Hiva and Hiva Oa, and back. Both islands must be visited. The Marquesas are a world away from the lagoon islands: dramatic peaks, archaeological sites, wood and stone carving, and the graves of Paul Gauguin and Jacques Brel on Hiva Oa.

Replaces: Marquesas Pass (same name, new fares). Air Tahiti renamed its passes for travel from 1 April 2026; see old and new pass names.

Sample itineraries

Flight schedules decide which order works best on your dates. We check live availability before you commit, because a pass can't be changed once it's issued.

How the pass works

All Air Tahiti passes share the same core rules: up to 28 days of validity (40 with an extension), a closed loop back to Tahiti, one visit per island, no Tahiti transits mid-pass, and no changes once the ticket is issued. Read the full pass rules.
