Dawn and Sunrise on the East coast
Joined 2024
This experience begins an hour before the actual sunrise!
It begins with a 35 minute drive from town to the east coast until we reach the Ahu Tongariki site. Here we carefully choose a spot to watch the dawn and sunrise from behind the moai, which occurs in the season from October through to April.
This experience can also be taken through the winter months, but with more probability of clouds and the actual sunrise is from behind the cliff of the Poike región.
