Faie is a small village on Huahine renowned for its population of blue-eyed freshwater eels, which gather under the Faie Bridge. Visitors can buy or bring food to feed these friendly, snake-like creatures that have become a local attraction. The eels are considered sacred in Polynesian culture, and the experience of hand-feeding them is both thrilling and culturally meaningful. The bridge itself offers a picturesque view of the river and surrounding greenery.
