We will also make a stop in the Punaei rainforest, where the enigmatic "Utuka", nicknamed the "Smiling Tiki" awaits you.
Tahuata
You will leave the Tahauku harbour, skirt the Hanakee Rock where you may be lucky enough to see Manta rays. On Tahuata Island, you will visit the hamlet
of Hapatoni, then stop in the village of Vaitahu to visit its church, museum and its small local market.
The people of Tahuata are known for their wood carvings on horse, pig and goat bones and surprisingly on swordfish rostrums. After that,
you will go on a beautiful white sand beach, where you can swim, relax and enjoy a barbecue.
This excursion is for people in good physical condition only, as the beach has no dock,
so disembarkation from the boat is by dinghy directly onto the sand.
Fatu Hiva
After a crossing by boat, you will arrive by the magnificent Virgins bay and you will spend 1 night in a guesthouse,
where you can share the inhabitant life, who will show you how to make Tapas or Monoi.
You will search the Monarch, an iconic bird of this island, and make a great hike through the island from Omoa to Hanavave.
