Anakena

Ahu Ature on Anakena Beach.

Anakena is a white coral sand beach in Rapa Nui National Park on Rapa Nui (Easter Island), a Chilean island in the Pacific Ocean. Anakena has two ahus; Ahu-Ature has a single moai and Ahu Nao-Nao has seven, two of which have deteriorated.[1] It also has a palm grove and a car park.

Anakena is unusual for Easter Island in that it is one of only two small sandy beaches in an otherwise rocky coastline.
