Learn about the principles of basic astronomy, the history of Polynesian voyaging and settlement, navigational techniques and the archeo-astronomy of Rapa Nui. Head out to some of the island’s traditional observatory sites to gaze at the night sky and view stars and constellations visible only in the Southern Hemisphere. Your guide will point out stars and constellations of interest to the Polynesian navigators, relating some of the stories and legends that are tied to them, and explain techniques on how to find certain cardinal points of the traditional Polynesian compass by using the layout of the night sky.

Our guide cancelled the tour less than 2 hours before the 8 pm start, blaming the weather. The weather was nice and the stars were bright. Seeing the stars with a local was one of the main reasons we went to the island. Very disappointed she didn’t feel like doing a tour that night.

I had a great experience knowing the island and the different stars and conjunctions in the cosmos as well as knowing how the ancient peoples were guided to know where they were located in a very interesting way and I totally recommend it.

One of the most adventures experience I have had photographing the night skies. Easter Island offered incredible dark skies as its remoteness had no light pollution. This adventure offered rare access to the Moai’s day and night, that required special permits. The guides were incredibly polite and gave us an opportunity to learn about the history of the Rapa Nui culture. In addition, our day excursions included trips to the beach and a boat trip to to learn about the Birdman Cult, at the Orongo visitor center. The view from the ocean and the top Orogon put into context how difficult it was for a person to scale and swim to an island to retrieve an egg to be the chosen leader for each year. This tip was well orchestrated to experience the Rapa Nui culture and the Moai’s, day and night. The photographs that have shared with friends demonstrate what an opportunity I had to be able to photograph the night skies.
