Easter Island

Located over 3,500km away from the Chilean coast in the Pacific Ocean, the mysterious Easter Island is one of the most remote inhabited corners of the world. Travel on an organised tour around the island and gaze upon the majestic Maoi stone statues, speculating at their mysterious origins. Alternatively, learn about the Polynesian discovery of the island and the ecological difficulties that it is facing in the modern day at one of the island’s Visitor Centres. Known to the locals as Rapa Nui, Easter Island is also home to many unspoiled beaches where you can enjoy looking out far out to sea across the Pacific waves.
