- The Marina Express (next to Mobil, McDonalds and ... the Marina Taina) is open 24 hours ... perfect if you've just arrived off a late flight and have your own transportation, especially if you're on your way to the Te Moana.
In addition to being a supermarket, they have hot food after 3am (F210 for a spring roll) as well as during the day (if you're lucky and it's not all gone during the lunch rush). Just remember to bring a shopping bag.

You mentioned shopping bags. Does the supermarket not provide one and so you have to provide your own when you go shopping?
Similar to Australia, they have phased out (I assume) plastic/paper shopping bags at the checkout ... so you need to bring your own (if buying more than a few items). I don't remember seeing the Carina Express having some you could buy if you forgot (I could be wrong) - the Carrefour supermarkets certainly do have re-usable ones you can buy and, I think, make neat "souvenirs" that you can re-use back home as some have Tahitian themes and/or French on them. /Brett
@@Brfff thanks for the quick reply. They phased out plastic bags in Hawaii and some states in the US. I will have to remember that when I shop in Tahiti one day. How much does a reusable bag go for on average at Carrefour or anywhere else in Tahiti?
Should clarify before some smartarse does ... "phased out FREE shopping bags" ... you can still get them in Australia and at the Carrefour in Tahiti, but you have to pay for them, hence the incentive to bring-your-own & re-use them.
@@bjpeterdelacruz7091 oooh, it's been a year ... can't remember ... I'm thinking maybe ₣300 (about US$2.70) ... but I could be wrong. They have different types in Carrefour. I've got one in my car (I'm away from home at the moment) ... I'll post a photo a bit later.
Your video makes me dizzy 😵
Ahhh, sorry. I'm still quite shy about filming in public so I try to be discrete ... people look at you and wonder why you're filming a boring supermarket. I will try to do better!
