Easter Island travel tips

Find Your Way to Easter Island: Flights, Inside Tips, and More

Easter Island, or Rapa Nui, is more than just a distant South Pacific landmass; it's a world apart filled with mystery, history, and awe-inspiring megaliths. Famed for its colossal stone statues, known as moai, the island calls out to those looking to step off the beaten path and unravel ancient enigmas. Imagine standing at the brink of history and nature, all while soaking in the Polynesian charm and serene seclusion that only Easter Island can offer. Kiwi travelers are drawn to this peculiar, remote land because of its unique cultural narrative and the captivating allure of the unknown making it a bucket-list destination.

From Runway to Rapa Nui: First Stops

Once your plane touches down at Mataveri International Airport, a short journey from Hanga Roa, the island’s only town, you’re immediately engulfed in Easter Island’s mystique. Start your exploration with a leisurely stroll or a bike ride along the coastal roads to Ahu Tongariki, where 15 moai stand silhouetted against the sky, an unforgettable sight. Embrace the slower pace as you visit the Rapa Nui National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offering both historical marvels and stunning natural landscapes.

With Kiwi’s flexible search, you’re sure to find conveniently timed flights that suit your itinerary, allowing for prime exploration time right off the bat.

Planning the Perfect Visit: Timing and Tips

Choosing when to book your flight to Easter Island can significantly affect your travel experience. The shoulder seasons from October to April offer milder weather and fewer crowds, which are perfect for a tranquil getaway. Booking 8–12 weeks in advance is generally recommended, and you can make the most of Kiwi's Price Alerts to snag the best deals.

Major hubs like Santiago provide direct flights, simplifying your journey, while Kiwi’s extensive layover and route hacks allow for potential savings and adventure discovery along the way.

Navigating Airports and Airlines

Given Easter Island’s remoteness, Mataveri International Airport primarily offers flights from Santiago with airlines such as LATAM. Despite limited carriers, the journey is an experience in itself, providing breathtaking aerial views as you approach. Upon arrival, travelers should note that public transportation is sparse, with taxis being the most convenient option into Hanga Roa.

Kiwi’s Nomad search tool can enhance your booking process, offering detailed insights into layovers and flight combinations, ensuring a hassle-free adventure to the island.
