At Ua Pou sarong clad dancers came aboard and entertained us during breakfast. Robert Louis Stevenson observed in 1880 that Ua Pou “had volcanic needles like the pinnacles of some ornate church.” Kathy went ashore to climb a summit and I joined the other passengers for another sumptuous lunch at Tata Rosalie’s.
Hiva Oa gained fame when Paul Gaugin went there and was inspired to paint his vivid impressions of the Marquesans engaged in daily life. It is also the site of the tomb of the last chief of Puamau.
