Starting about 4-4:30 free parking opens up See attached jpeg of places to park near marina Papeete. First arrow upper right is paid parking lot that closes at 5pm. Other arrows indicate free parkingJacaranda ### Car Rental Marina Tiana Island: **Tahiti** Just a heads up. This is a much better place to have a rental car since there is lots of spacing for parking. If you have a choice of stopping in Tiana for a few days its a better location for a car rental due to onsite parking Using Eco Car seems to be a 1st choice of cruisers but be sure to be clear about car delivery to the marina with all the paperwork and CC machine versus having to be shuttled to their office at the airport and long lines which means waiting!! ### Eco Car Island: **Tahiti** πŸ“ GPS decimal degrees: Lat -17.560614, Lon -149.609273 *[GoogleMaps](https://www.google.com/maps/?q=-17.560614,-149.609273) [OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=-17.560614&mlon=-149.609273&zoom=19)* Located airport area 89 50 44 77 Echo Car Rental phone [πŸ“ž +6894054290](tel:+6894054290) Two options with ECO car 1. They will deliver the car to you with all the paperwork and CC machine - easy and fast 2. They will pick you up and take you to the airport office - This may take hours like it did for us. Plus we had to return it to them again another hour. First time we rented from them they came to the Papeete Marina and we saw option #1 as quick, efficient and only took about 10 minutes Second time we rented they picked us up and transported us to their airport office. This took 2 hours with traffic, 10 people in front of us when we arrived. Plus we had to return the car to the airport office as well - another hour++ wasted. MAKE SURE YOU INSIST ON OPTION 1 Jacaranda ### Europa Car Island: **Tahiti** Airport location ### 40 86 61 96Hello Car Island: **Tahiti** Hello Car Short Term Car Rental using the app. [🌐 www.facebook.com/100063856920846/posts/](https://www.facebook.com/100063856920846/posts/) pfbid04NSEa561F5dTaX9ohMZGinMnBEHKePCvDrFYwesxPxiMQKy3iioJGDJqSRkb51cjl/?mibextid=Nif5oz 11-23 SV Elvira Short term app rental.
