Motu Tours
Come with us to enjoy Easter Island, sailing the crystalline waters that surround it. We offer the following tours and activities:
Navigation to the motus
We leave by boat from Hanga Piko and headed to the area of the caves formed centuries ago by volcanic eruptions and served as a refuge and shelter for our ancestors, then we’ll see the Mataveri area from the sea, to go after, around the islets or motus: Motu Kao Kao, Motu Iti and Motu Nui, where we will explain you what was the Tangata Manu competition and finally to sail to Tahai sector, to see the ahu and moai of this important archaeological site. During the tour you can swim and snorkel. All equipment (fins, diving goggles, diving suit, floats and ladders) is included.
Birdwatching
It is a navigation whose main objective is to observe the different types of birds that live in Rapa Nui, both on the main island and motus. While browsing, we will make all the necessary stops, to have enough time to see and photograph birds and we will talk about each of them, their characteristics and their names in Rapanui language.
Artisanal and Sportfishing
For fishing enthusiasts, we offer the possibility to capture native species of Rapa Nui in traditional way, using hook and line. We can make fishing trips near the coast in search of typical fish like the Pici or, deep sea fishing to go for much larger species like tuna. Our passengers have the option of asking us to prepare a Tunu Ahi (traditional preparation of grilled fish) with fish caught. All equipment for fishing is included.
