Comments About... French Polynesia

According to the official Tahiti Tourisme web site, Tahiti and her Islands have two times zones. This information can be found in the FAQ section . However, Tahiti and her islands have in fact three time zones. The third time zone is not mentioned on the Tahiti Tourisme web site. Most likely, the third time zone is not mentioned since it is not visited by many tourists due to its distance from the main island of Tahiti.

Since there is no official mention of the third time zone, timegenie.com contacted a Tahiti Tourisme office by phone. The result was that timegenie.com received official confirmation of the third time zone.

Based on the information provided by Tahiti Tourisme, the majority of the islands, including the island of Tahiti itself, are -10 hours UTC/GMT. The Marquesas Islands are -9 hours 30 minutes UTC/GMT. The Gambier Islands are the third time zone and they are -9 hours UTC/GMT.

The French annexed various Polynesian island groups during the 19th century. In September 1995, France stirred up widespread protests by resuming nuclear testing on the Mururoa atoll after a three–year moratorium. The tests were suspended in January 1996.

French Polynesia is located in the South Pacific Ocean, about one–half of the way from South America to Australia.
