Pitufa.at » Fotogalerie » Marquesas: Tahuata

Wir besuchten die kleine Insel Tahuata im September 2013, einem ruhigen Monat in den Marquesas, weil die meisten Cruiser schon auf dem Weg nach Westen Richtung Neuseeland sind. Wir genossen die süßen, kleinen Dörfer und freundeten uns mit den Einheimischen an.
