Anakena

Anakena Beach, located on Easter Island, boasts stunning vistas of the celebrated moai statues. These ancient artifacts, meticulously crafted by hand, display varying heights that span from 1.2 meters to an impressive 10 meters. Additionally, one can easily witness the moai statues directly on the beach without having to traverse any significant distances. Furthermore, the shoreline of Anakena Beach remains a revered location throughout the history of the Rapa Nui culture. The legend of "Hotu Matu'a and the seven explorers" stipulates that this precise location serves as the doorway where the first king of the island disembarked his ship and settled the inaugural colonies on the isle.
