Nexus - Baie Hanamoenoa, Tahuata, Marquesas



We left our friends in the crowded harbor on Atuona as more rally boats were expected in, and moved on to a peaceful anchorage just 7 mile away on Tahuata, called Baie Hanamoenoa. It is a small and delightful anchorage on a neighboring lush island, with a beautiful white sand beach framed by cliffs, with the towering volcano peak looking down from above. It was a peaceful night sleep, and a great place to celebrate our 33rd anniversary! We are leaving in the morning for Fatu Hiva and the "bay of virgins" which is one of the most beautiful locations here. We took a long snorkel and swim in the warm and crystal clear waters here, and then spend several hours cleaning our hull as we had some algae growth on our passage. Baie Hanamoenoa is a beautiful harbor, ranked as one of the top three in the Marquesas, and it's easy to see why!
