Anse Hakatea

✨ Hidden gem

Hakatea Bay offers well-protected anchorage tucked into one of Nuku Hiva's most dramatic settings — a sandy beach to the east and towering volcanic cliffs rising sharply to the west. The scale of it is genuinely jaw-dropping. You're deep in the Marquesas here, far from any marina bustle, so come self-sufficient and ready to soak it in.
