Tourist points
Fascinating and secluded in the world, Easter Island (Rapa Nui in its native language) is the last frontier of South America. It has essentially Polynesian roots and is full of sweeping landscapes. It is famous for its huge stone statues, the moais. These gigantic volcanic stone statues, 1 to 10 meters high and weighing up to 80 tons, span the entire perimeter of the island and are virtually the last legacy of a people whose writing and culture have all but disappeared.
Between the clear blue sea and the volcanic relief, you will find trails to explore by bike, horse, tour or even on foot. Hanga Roa, the island's only city, is home to the local airport, most hotels, restaurants and services, including operators organizing activities such as diving, snorkeling, excursions to neighboring islets and kayaking.
The best tours are those that pass through the Rano Kau and Rano Raraku volcanoes and the ceremonial village of Orongo.
Tourists can still enjoy some beautiful beaches, such as calm Anakena - which has its own set of moais - and a complex cave system.
In Hanga Roa artisan market, you can take a break from shopping and purchase the island's handcrafted products such as wood and stone carving and shell and coral necklaces.
