Huahine was discovered by Captain James COOK in 1769, and ever since major changes has occurred in the culture even in the behavior. The MAOHI the Polynesian or the natives of these islands believed that what the eyes can see is not sacred (holy) and what the eyes cannot see is sacred, just like the feeling that makes people act or react, therefore, enjoy what you can see and listen to what you can't see.
