We are Totally OVERCOME with Emotion 🥹🥲 THATS OUR GIRL!!! ⛵️❤️ (Calico Skies Sailing, Ep 232)

Welcome aboard Calico Skies Sailing for an exciting journey through the heart of Fatu Hua Island! In this episode, we join the crew on their 3,000-mile Pacific Ocean voyage as they explore the stunning landscapes, local villages, and vibrant cultures of this breathtaking Marquesas Islands paradise.

Exploring the Other Side of Fatu Hua Island

A tour on the other side of the island reveals a lush, verdant paradise filled with an incredible variety of flora. The crew winds their way up to a 900m peak, where they take in panoramic views of the jagged volcanic peaks and dense forests surrounding the island. Along the trek, they discover the beauty and diversity of the local foliage, each shade of green seemingly more vibrant than the last.

Discovering the Island’s Largest Village

A journey deeper into the island leads them to the largest village, where a population of 400 locals reside. The crew visits a local market and observes a variety of items priced in French Polynesian Francs, many of which hold familiar origins from European and Caribbean French islands.

Traditional Arts and Crafts

The crew then heads to the home of their tour guide’s mother, where they witness a fascinating demonstration of tapis-making. Tapis is a traditional cloth made from tree bark that showcases incredible local artwork and craftsmanship. The women also teach them about making floral hairpieces traditionally worn by Marquesans, using fragrant flowers such as Jasmine, mint, pineapple, and sandalwood.

Encountering the Endangered Black Monarch Bird

In a final stop at Fatu Hua Island, the crew learns about the rare black monarch bird – the largest glossy black bird native to Fatu Hua and French Polynesia’s most endangered bird species. Biologists work on preserving this magnificent creature through a local breeding program, while the crew admires the collection of stone Tiki carvings by the water’s edge.

Stunning Views and Local Cuisine

The crew takes in breathtaking views from the mast head, with an unobstructed vista of their surroundings. Despite some challenging wind and rolling conditions, they are determined to make repairs while maintaining their appreciation for this beautiful island destination.

Cooking Up a Delicious Brunch

Feeling exhausted after an adventurous day, the crew looks forward to a well-deserved brunch. They create a satisfying meal with fresh ingredients such as local fruits, potatoes, eggs, and pomme de terre (potatoes), all while enjoying the sunshine and pleasant company.

Experiencing Island Culture

On a sunny Saturday afternoon, they encounter lively music at what appears to be a community center. The local performers entertain visitors with their art and crafts, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for the crew of Calico Skies Sailing.
