Besoin de nouvelles de l'atoll? Lis le: Août 2022
Les recherches utilisant l’eDNA ont pris un certain essor et à Tetiaroa, nous sommes les leaders d’une tendance mondiale.
Tout a commencé par une idée...
Mon souhait est que l'île soit un modèle écologique, qu'elle soit non seulement une réserve marine mais qu'elle serve aussi de lieu de recherche et d'investigation scientifique...
- Marlon Brando
à propos de nous
La Tetiaroa Society (TS) est une organisation à but non lucratif de type 501(c)(3) qui est basée aux Etats Unis d'Amérique. NOTRE MISSION est de veiller à ce que les communautés îliennes et côtières aient un futur aussi riche que leur passé ", renforcer leur résilience face aux changements globaux,leur services écosystémiques et préserver leur culture.
Riches de nos expériences et de nos actions à Tetiaroa, NOTRE VISION est une approche île-monde qui tisse des valeurs éclairées, des savoirs traditionnels et une compréhension scientifique en une toile nouvelle pour notre île.
Actions en cours: La Tetiaroa Society a été choisit par le propriétaire de l'île comme garant de l'environnement sur Tetiaroa et comme responsable de la gestion, de la conservation et de la protection de l'île. Les objectifs de notre programme sont synthétisés dans notre Plan de Conservation et de Gestion Durable de l’atoll de Tetiaroa. Ce plan prévoit que la TS développe et pratique la conservation et l'éducation, qu'elle soit un lieu de recherche scientifique et de protection des savoirs de l'île. Nous avons comme partenaire Le Brando qui familiarise les clients du resort avec la nature et la culture de l'île et qui fait de cette île un modèle de gestion durable de la planète où compagnies et organisations caritatives travaillent ensemble pour le bien être des communautés et de la nature.
Tetiaroa Society has three working partners without which we would not be able to carry out our mission:
The Brando Resort, The Brando Family Trust, and the Commune of Arue.
Brando Enterprises, L.P. is an operating entity created by the Marlon Brando Living Trust to manage core interests including Brando licensing activities, preservation and archiving of Brando memorabilia in preparation for future use and film participation and represent the Brando Trust’s continuing commitment to achieving Marlon’s wishes as set forth in his Trust documents. Tetiaroa Society represents the commitment of Brando Enterprises to honor Marlon’s vision for his French Polynesian atoll to advance sustainable interdependence through creative science, conservation, and education for local people and those around the world.
The Brando is an exquisite luxury resort on French Polynesia’s breathtakingly beautiful private atoll of Tetiaroa, just 30 miles north of Tahiti. Tetiaroa is comprised of a dozen idyllic islets surrounding a spectacular lagoon. Tetiaroa has always been a place of stunning beauty, tranquility and rejuvenation — first for Tahitian royalty, who chose this island above all others for their summer retreat, and later for Marlon Brando who chose it for his personal sanctuary. With access provided by private plane, the resort offers carefree luxury in the midst of pristine nature. The all-inclusive resort features 35 deluxe villas each with its own private beach area and plunge pool, restaurants showcasing Polynesian and French cuisine, a luxurious Polynesian spa, a lagoon-view bar, beach bar, pool, organic garden, library, boutique, and water sports. The Brando is a pioneering model of sustainable technology with sea water air-conditioning and energy from the sun and coconut oil. Protection of the abundant tropical fish and other marine life is core to the resort’s mission. With deep respect for its cultural legacy and the use of historical practices and new technologies to provide extraordinary luxury in an environmentally-friendly manner, The Brando brings the past and future together into a place beyond time, invigorating the spirit and enriching all who visit.
Our other local partners:
The missions of the Gump Research Station on Moorea are to promote research, education, and outreach in global change science, tropical biocomplexity, and sustainable development, and to develop Moorea as a model system to understand how physical, biological, and cultural processes interact to shape tropical socio-ecosystems, particularly coral reefs.
Mission Blue is a global initiative of the Sylvia Earle Alliance, a 501c3 organization, which was formed in response to Sylvia Earle’s 2009 TED Prize wish. Dr. Earle urged people “to use all means at your disposal — films, expeditions, the web, new submarines — to create a campaign to ignite public support for a global network of marine protected areas; Hope Spots large enough to save and restore the blue heart of the planet.” Currently, the Mission Blue community includes 100+ respected ocean conservation groups and like-minded organizations — from large multinational companies down to individual scientific teams doing important research.
With more than 25 years’ experience in the French Polynesian tourism market, 678 hotel rooms and 210 cabins, Pacific Beachcomber, S.C. is the country’s largest luxury hotel and cruise operator.

In 1996, Air Tahiti Nui was founded to connect the world to one of the world’s great treasures, the islands of Tahiti. Our fleet of five Airbus A340-300s provides service to Tahiti from Paris, Los Angeles, Auckland and Tokyo. With partnership and codeshare agreements, we’ve extended that route network to include 39 major cities around the world including Sydney and New York.
As a Tahitian face to the rest of the world, Air Tahiti Nui takes enormous care to demonstrate the hospitality, beauty and relaxed nature of the nation’s people in every detail of the airline
Add to this, Air Tahiti Nui supports various environment protection programs. The beauty of our islands is the first asset of our tourism industry. Protecting nature and the beauty of Tahiti is the only way to make our tourism sustainable on the long term.
Supporting Tetiaroa Society is an incredible chance for Air Tahiti Nui to further demonstrate our commitment to protecting the natural beauty of Tahiti and her islands.
The Société d’Ornithologie de Polynésie ‘Manu’ (SOP) is a non-governmental, nonprofit organization. It was founded in 1990 and has 100 members. SOP is managed by a Council elected for two years and has a team of five permanent employees who work full time to carry out bird conservation programs in French Polynesia. Additionally, a network of people is involved in projects on a number of French Polynesian islands (awareness raising, biosecurity, rat eradication/control, logistical support, guides etc.). SOP became a partner of BirdLife in 2010 and it is legally recognized as public interest since 1999. Thanks to the actions of SOP, the critically endangered Ducula galeata was down-listed from critically to endangered birds and the Tahiti and Fatu Hiva monarchs would have been extinct today without SOP. SOP has many other programs like rat eradication projects and marine bird preservation, and notably the rescue of the grounded Tahiti Petrels.
Te mana o te moana non-governmental organization was founded on September 23rd, 2004. Through its research, conservation, communication and educational activities, the foundation strives to protect the marine environment of French Polynesia and to extend to the all world. Since 2008, Te mana o te moana is state-approved NGO of General interest and officially recognized by the environmental code. Te mana o te moana is also a member of IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature), membership type B (c) – National non-governmental organizations (number NG/25093).
