It is served exclusively by Air Tahiti with small aircraft via Nuku Hiva (flight time approximately 30 minutes). The three villages and the airfield are connected by a paved road, the rest of the island is undeveloped or accessible only by roads and trails. The tourist infrastructure is modest. There are no hotels, but there are a few privately run guesthouses, restaurants, and small shops with a limited range of products, open at the discretion of the owners. There is no bank on the island and credit cards are not accepted (since 2000). In Vaipaee, the most populated village, there is a town hall with local administration, a post office (with satellite phone), a first aid station, a nursery and a primary school (école maternelle et primaire). Secondary schools and qualified medical care are only available in Nuku Hiva and Papeete.
