Marquesas Exploration Hiva Oa and Fatu Hiva to Nuku Hiva I (complete boat)

The Marquesas is one of those places you can only visit on a boat. Back in 2007, we landed here after a three-week crossing from the Galapagos, and we instantly fell in love with the beauty of the islands and its people.

This trip is different from all our other trips. It is an island sailing and nature trip with some occasional kiting(due to the fact that there are no reefs and lagoons around the islands). This group of islands is one of the remotest in the world and so worth the visit. Thor Heyerdahl (KON-TIKI raft)started his adventures here when he tried to spend a year "back into nature' in 1937. Later he made a raft and sailed/drifted from South America to French Polynesia.

We'll pick you up in Hiva Oa, go around the island, and visit ancient sites with the most giant tiki statues before we sail to Fatu Hiva, a lush green island with only a few villages and spectacular hikes. Then onto Tahuata and Ua Poa for some kiting and winging. We finish the trip in Nuku Hiva, with its majestic, rugged landscapes, and the Hakaui Valley, with its stunning waterfall. This trip is your chance to meet a special part of the world.
