Ahu Te Peu is an archaeological site, left unrestored, allowing us to witness it just as the ancient inhabitants left it after internal conflicts led to the toppling of moai statues.

Stretching approximately 50 metres in length, it once served as a "kionga," a place of refuge in ancient times. This unique geological wonder offers a glimpse into the island's volcanic past and the historical significance it held as a sanctuary for the people of old.
Ahu Akivi

Ahu Akivi is a rare ceremonial platform on Easter Island, distinct for its inland location. Its seven moai statues were meticulously restored to their upright positions through collaborative efforts by archaeologists William Mulloy, Gonzalo Figueroa, and the Rapa Nui community. These moai hold a unique characteristic of being astronomically aligned, facing the setting sun with precision.
Puna Pau

There you will experience a view of 360º of the ocean.
It is not a frequented route, so for a great part of the journey, you will find yourself alone and will enjoy total serenity.
Motu Nui
- 3h
Life on Rapa Nui, an island in Polynesia, is closely connected to the ocean. The feeling of isolation is heightened by the round horizon and vast ocean that surround the island. The sea and sky are considered one by the locals. The Motus, three small islets off the coast, were the site of the ancient Birdman competition. The strongest men from each tribe would climb the cliffs and swim to the islets to find the first manutara egg. The winner would lead the clan for a year as the man-bird Tangata Manu.
For those interested, a boat trip to the Motus is an excellent opportunity for snorkelling, with excellent visibility of up to 60 metres in all directions at Motu Kao Kao, a cliff that reaches its sandy bottom at 50 metres, and purple waters. It's a unique spot along the entire coast of the island.
