Instead the city welcomes visitors with broad beaches and an easy pace of life, plus convenient air and water connections that make the city a perfect place to begin or end a cruise.

Easter Island
Billed as the most remote inhabited island in the world, Easter Island is known locally as Rapa Nui. It adopted its more familiar name after one Johannes Roggeeveen discovered the island on Easter Sunday, 1722. Like him, you’ll come face to face with the ancient Moais. About 800 of these giant statues, representing high chiefs of competing tribes, are dotted around the island. Some weigh up to 80 tons and it remains a mystery to this day how they were quarried and moved before the wheel was even invented.
