8-Day Trip to the Marquesas Islands from Papeete (page 2 of 2)

Hi Anne-Claire,

Yes, we’ve already "crossed paths" 🙂

I gathered that Fakarava isn’t recommended for non-divers like us... 4 nights might be too much??

My wife doesn’t dive either, and she wasn’t bored for a minute—our guesthouse was amazing, to be fair. Time really does move differently there; 4 days felt too short 😮.

For Algeria, the blog is done, just a few layout tweaks left. I’ll post a travel journal here as soon as I have some time. The trip was beautiful—just look at the photos to see for yourself—but there’s not much text to read since the days were similar in terms of timing, and we weren’t self-driving. 😉

See you soon... your project is making me dream!

Wow! These photos are stunning! It looks a bit like Wadi Rum. I’ll definitely keep Fakarava in mind. See you soon

Hi everyone,

Here’s an extra tip for anyone planning a future trip to the Marquesas—might be useful if you’re visiting for the first time or heading back. It’s about the shuttle boat schedule (Hiva Oa’s municipal shuttle) between Hiva Oa and Tahuata, a nearby island, as well as Fatu Hiva, which is much farther south and could previously only be visited—very briefly—during an Aranui cruise. This schedule is available via PM. Feel free to contact me through the site.

Hi Moana,

navettes ... Fatu Iva, much more southern, and which we couldn’t visit

great news indeed 🙂

It’s the kind of thing that makes you want to go back to the Marquesas 😏

Hello

I don’t see the Marquesas pass on Air Tahiti with the 4 islands you mentioned. There’s a Marquesas pass for 750 € with only 2 islands. Where did you find it?
