  Intraplate volcanic islands are often considered as stable relief with
constant vertical motion and used for relative sea-level curves reconstruction.
This study shows that large landslides cause non-negligible isostatic
adjustment. The vertical motion that occurred after landslide is quantified
using a modelling approach. We show that a giant landslide caused a coastline
uplift of 80-110 m for an elastic thickness of 15 km < $T_e$ < 20 km in Tahiti.
Theoretical cases also reveal that a coastal motion of 1 m occurred for a
landslide involving a displaced volume of 0.2 $km^3$ and influence relative
sea-level reconstruction. In Tahiti, a change in the subsidence rate of 0.1
mm/yr (from 0.25 mm/yr to 0.15 mm/yr) occurred during the last 6 kyr and could
be explained by a landslide involving a minimum volume of 0.2 $km^3$, $6 \pm 1$
kyr ago.
