msg. maybe a little late, but if yr still interested; tahiti is partof french polynesia. no noticeable climbing there but the marquesas to the n.e., still in french polynesia and accessible by the local airline, has.
1 island in particular has an orange and red wall with a very bright yellow streak,coming out of the ocean, visible a couple of miles out to sea,around 300m long and 150m high. this wall has a definite crack feature running diagonaly through it.
this island is close to the island of hiva oa, which has an airport.
the wall is vertical, and no reason to assume it to be anything but solid. there are though other factors which would lead me to place it into the catagory of 'adventureclimbing'.
