tips & insights
Crafts
The two best bring-home crafts are traditional wood carvings and topa cloths (beaten bark painted with intricate tattoo-like drawings).
Location
Fatu Hiva (also spelled Fatu Iva) is the southernmost island of the remote Marquesas Islands group in French Polynesia.
Getting
there
It has no landing strip. Except for a rare helicopter, boats are the only means of access. Your options include a short stop off a cruise ship or private yacht - or from the Aranui passenger-freighter, which calls once every three weeks.
