Mystical Marvels

Easter Island is famous for its nearly 900 giant moai statutes that are found in various stages of completion at the quarry, Rano Raraku, and dotted around the island. The moai depict the heads and torsos of a people who have unsmiling mouths, long noses and heavy brows. Carved from volcanic stone by an ancient Polynesian society, the statues are huge — weighing around 14 tons and 4 metres (13 feet) in height — and no one knows why they were created.

Crystal Clear Water

Part of the appeal of Easter Island is the almost transparent sea, which is ideal for scuba diving and snorkelling. Other activities you can enjoy are kayaking, surfing and sailing, while horseback riding, hiking and cave exploring are also popular with visitors. The beach at Anakena is a white, sandy piece of paradise, just right for relaxing. If you visit Easter Island during February, make sure you enter into the fun of the Tapati Festival, when you can throw spears, carve statutes, dance and sing. On cloudless nights, visitors spend time gazing at the stars, which because of the island's remote location are stupendous.
