Easter Island

Hanga Roa, menaing ‘Long Bay’ in Rapanui, is the main (and only!) town and the harbour of Easter Island. It sits in the lowlands between the extinct volcanoes of Terevaka and Rano Kau. Easter Island is tiny, only 14 miles long and 7 miles wide, but it is well worth extending your visit by booking one of Hanga Roa’s few accommodation options so you can really explore.
