Things to do in Easter Island, Easter Island: The Best Historic Sites
Located in the South Pacific more than 2,000 miles off the Chilean coast, Easter Island’s not the easiest place to reach. (If you’re interested, the easiest access is by air from Santiago or Tahiti.) But isolation has helped preserve the 1,500-year-old mysterious congregation of volcanic rock sculptures (maoi) that’s the island’s biggest claim to fame. After exploring the unique landscape, relax on an uncrowded beach and ponder one of the most mysterious places on Earth.

This lake-filled crater is filled with remnants of the Birdman cult practiced until 1867.

Most interesting history about the Birdman cult where you can view the islands where the swimmers went to acquire the bird eggs and see the structures that the islanders lived in on the island.

Ahu Vinapu is an interesting archeological site in Easter Island. It has a ceremonial center, which includes one of the larger ahu(platform) on Rapa Nui. The ahu exhibits extraordinary stonemasonry consisting of large, carefully fitted slabs of basalt. This site was investigated by an American archaeologist, William Mulloy, in 1958. Certainly worth visiting for seeing the artwork from yesteryears, while in Easter Island.

This place is very special! Very peaceful and with a stunning view of the sea, with Moais fixed in front ot it. This sum - Moais + sea - turns the Mirador Tahai an unique place to see the stunning sunset. I was really glad to be lodged near this site, and would definitely repeat the experience in another visit to the Island. Have a beer at Puka Puka restaurant before going down to the sunset spot and enjoy an unforgetful moment!
