You are advised to be alert to your own security in French Polynesia. Exercise common sense and look out for suspicious behaviour, as you would in Australia.
You are advised to exercise caution and monitor developments that might affect your safety in Papeete because of the risk of being caught up in incidents of civil unrest.
Industrial disputes have the potential to create tensions and to lead to social unrest, including strike action. You should monitor developments and plan accordingly.
You should avoid demonstrations and large public gatherings as they may turn violent. Cyclone season in French Polynesia is from November to April. However, tropical storms and cyclones may occur in other months.
