Aranui 5 Day 8 Rikitea<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We headed back to Rikitea to tour the island and drop off the customs official. We were met dockside by residents dressed in traditional costume and of course, the market. They treated us to a dance created especially for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the dance, we toured the island. There are two major exports, lychee berries and black pearls. They export over 2,000 tons of lychee nuts. The trees are everywhere. They bloom in September\/October and are harvested and shipped before Christmas. We visited a small church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
