French Polynesia's 2nd constituency is a French legislative constituency in French Polynesia. It is currently represented by Nicole Sanquer of A here ia Porinetia.

Following the 2010 redistricting of French legislative constituencies, which came into application for the June 2012 legislative election, the boundaries of French Polynesia's two constituencies were redrawn so as to create a third constituency in the collectivity. Since then, the 2nd constituency consists of the communes of Hitiaa O Te Ra, Mahina, Paea, Papara, Taiarapu-Est, Taiarapu-Ouest and Teva I Uta in the Windward Islands, and all communes in the Austral Islands (Raivavae, Rapa, Rimatara, Rurutu, Tubuai).^[1]
