| Passage to Fatu Hiva was accomplished by flying
to Papeete on Tahiti, then taking two successively smaller planes,
the first to Nuku Hiva. A smaller Dornier (below) airplane was
used to fly from Nuku Hiva to Hiva Oa. From Hiva Oa we made the
very rough, 50 mile passage to Fatu Hiva by boat. The photo below
shows how rough it was. |
