The Overseas Lands of French Polynesia are located in the Pacific Ocean between Australia and South America. It is a group of five archipelagoes, with Tahiti being the most well-known island. The population is about 280,000 people. As a French overseas territory, the French president is chief of state and is represented by a high commissioner. The president of French Polynesia is the head of government.
The French annexed various Polynesian islands during the 19th century and later formed the French colony of Oceania. In 1946, the islands became a French overseas territory, and subsequently, the country has moved toward obtaining autonomy. In 2004, French Polynesia acquired the status of “overseas country,” and today eventual independence is important on the political agenda.
France conducted atomic testing on the atolls between 1966 and 1996. In 1995, the nuclear testing resulted in violent protests in Papeete and widespread international demonstrations. The nuclear test site was dismantled in 1998.
Tourism is well developed in French Polynesia. The islands offer volcanic mountains, beaches and lagoons, sailing, snorkeling, and diving. Tahiti and Bora Bora are well-known destinations.

French Polynesia中的安全性
人身安全
法屬玻里尼西亞的犯罪率非常低。在旅遊區和首都帕皮提，扒手和竊盜等輕微犯罪偶爾會發生，但嚴重犯罪很少發生。幾乎是聞所未聞，也沒有發生過影響遊客的暴力犯罪。在人潮擁擠的地方或海灘，您可能會遇到飲料下藥和盜竊，因此請隨身攜帶隨身物品，不要將飲料放在無人看管的地方。帕皮提比其他島嶼需要更加謹慎，尤其是在天黑之後。夜間避免前往光線昏暗的小巷和港口區域，因為這些地區的輕微犯罪率較高。不建議天黑後獨自在偏僻的海灘上散步。離開首都後，犯罪率會大幅下降。外島和度假區的犯罪事件報告很少。大多數當地人都熱情友善。針對遊客的詐騙很少見。最大的安全隱患來自自然環境，而不是犯罪。海灘沒有巡邏，即使在潟湖中也會出現強勁的水流。石魚、珊瑚礁和海洋災害比人身傷害更大。請僅與符合安全標準的經過驗證的業者預訂水上活動和潛水。
極端暴力
法屬玻里尼西亞近期無恐怖主義歷史，暴力犯罪極為罕見。該地區受益於法國的反恐框架。島上沒有發生過恐怖主義行為，也不存在任何特定威脅。這裡政治平靜穩定，極端主義活動極少。兇殺率極低。針對遊客的暴力犯罪幾乎不存在。搶劫和持械搶劫並非常見現象。大多數暴力犯罪涉及家庭糾紛，而非隨機攻擊陌生人。襲擊事件時有發生，但不頻繁。法國憲兵和當地警察的存在維護安全。槍支不易流通。法屬玻里尼西亞海域未發生過海盜事件。航海愛好者全年都能安全地生活在島嶼周圍。雖然海盜事件極為罕見，但作為基本預防措施，您仍應避免前往天黑後包括海灘在內的偏僻地區。
政治動盪
法屬玻里尼西亞偶爾會發生罷工和勞資糾紛，可能會擾亂交通、航班和港口運營等基本服務。這些罷工通常與法國全國性的勞工行動有關，因為該地區遵循法國的勞工慣例。示威活動時有發生，主要在首都帕皮提。即使是和平抗議也可能演變成暴力事件。過去的抗議活動涉及圍繞獨立運動和投票改革的政治緊張局勢，儘管這些抗議活動有限。 1995 年，因法國核子試驗爆發抗議活動，導致機場暴動和與警察的衝突。自 2015 年以來，政治穩定已恢復。該地區仍處於法國的管轄之下，實行地方自治。雖然圍繞獨立存在政治緊張局勢，但這些緊張局勢很少影響遊客。如果您遇到示威或大型集會，請立即離開該地區。罷工通常會提前宣布，因此請在旅行前和旅行期間關注當地新聞。運輸工會經常加入罷工，這可能會影響島際旅行和機場運作。
應避免的區域
法屬玻里尼西亞沒有真正危險的街區或島嶼。即使在首都帕皮提，暴力犯罪也很少發生，儘管該城市比其他地區需要更多的警覺。在帕皮提，天黑後要避開光線昏暗的小街，尤其是港口區以及法里皮蒂和蒂帕埃魯伊區的部分地區。帕皮提市中心在夜間會非常喧鬧混亂，尤其是在酒吧區。盜竊和車輛盜竊等輕微犯罪在這裡比其他地方更常見。大多數犯罪事件集中在帕皮提，只是因為這裡人口密度最高。當人群聚集時，島嶼各港口地區的輕微犯罪會增加。除了帕皮提之外，其他島嶼都非常安全。莫雷阿島、波拉波拉島和其他外島報告的犯罪事件很少。法屬玻里尼西亞最大的風險是環境問題。即使在看似平靜的潟湖中也存在著強大的洋流。海灘無人巡邏。珊瑚、石魚和其他海洋危害需要注意。偏遠島嶼的緊急服務可能有限，反應時間也可能更長。山區通常沒有手機訊號。徒步時請務必沿著標記的路徑行走。
