Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Fatu Hiva?

It's located in a lush valley with a picturesque bay, known for its small pier where supply ships and yachts dock. The village is compact, with a few local shops, a church, and the communal artisan centre where local crafts are made and sold. The famous "Waterfall of Vaiea" is also accessible from this area.

For travellers seeking an authentic cultural experience and connection with the local community, Omoa is the ideal base. You'll be close to local artisans, have opportunities to witness traditional Marquesan carving and tatau (tattooing), and experience village life firsthand. It's also the starting point for guided hikes to scenic overlooks and other parts of the island.

Couples looking for a peaceful and secluded retreat into nature will also appreciate Omoa. The village offers a tranquil setting, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and verdant hills, great for unwinding and enjoying the natural beauty of the Marquesas.
