Last year when Marc's family was showing me around Tahiti island, they stopped by a pebbly black sand beach (the first I had seen in my life). Next to it was a bit of road which had been fenced off. On the other side of the fence, I was told there was a tourist attraction of Tahiti that had been closed for a while due to some apparent dangers. Approaching the fence, there was no one around the area, and I really had no idea where we were going or what I was going to see. The family pointed out a crevice in the rock wall on the other side of the road, and told me to go take a photo with it. At this point I wasn't too sure what the big excitement was... it was a hole in the rocks after all... but I figured what the heck. I walked up to the hole to pose for a photo, and they kept telling me to go closer to the hole. When I was told to "look at it!" I had this dreaded feeling of oh no... what's going to comes out of the hole? What came out was not what I expected at all! It is called the Arahoho Blowhole (Trou du Souffleur de Arahoho in French) but locals will just call it Trou du Souffleur. It's currently closed due to some road improvements but should be opening soon.
