Anakena and Ovahe Beach
Camino Vaitea Anakena Parque Nacional Hanga Roa, Isla de Pascua, Valparaíso Region, Chile
Despite having miles of coastline, there are only two real beaches on Easter Island: Anakena Beach and Ovahe Beach are both on the north side of the island. The water is warm and conducive to swimming, and there are stands on the beach selling cold drinks.
