    It’s not yet an easy job to get into Easter Island after the opening of the borders related to COVID. Checking the sites seems like a really good idea. No specifics for entry for yachts, unfortunately. https://www.gob.cl/noticias/luego-dos-anos-rapa-nui-reabre-sus-puertas-al-turismo-conozca-los-requisitos-para-visitar-la-isla/

    There have been reports that the Port Captain for Easter Island has been advising yachts (coming from Galapagos and mainland Ecuador) that they will be allowed into Easter Island. However, Immigration (PDI) are not permitting yachts to enter as the borders are closed. In an emergency, yachts may be permitted to anchor and get food/fuel.

    Posted on behalf of Davidi Gilo
    We just sail to Easter Island from Galapagos via Lima, Peru (February 2020) and we wish to inform you of this information regarding entering Easter Island by Boat from outside Chile:
    Every boat arriving to Easter Island from outside Chile must clear upon entry in Hanga Roa however:
    Based on Chilean government regulations, boat are not allowed to clear in themselves and they are required to you an agent.
    There is ONLY one agent in Easter Island and he change about 4 times more then other agent charge anywhere else in Chile or other location in South and Central America
    We are 37M sailing yacht and his fees were around $3,000 – he charges others fees such as to bring the custom and immigration officer to the boat $250, we paid the same boat $20 for the same ride. He charge $200 communication fee and on and on. Basically it is a total extortion and there is no way around it, we argues for 5 hours with the Chilean port authorities – but they refuse to get involved in this extortion and we had no choice but to use him.
    Other points:
    There is ability to fuel in Easter Island, however you must use the agent and he charge $1500 for providing the fuel pump and marine’s fuel protection at sea plus $250 per 1,000 liter delivery plus fuel costs. (Prices are Feb 2020).
    I hope it is helpful,
    Kind Regards,
    Davidi Gilo

    Visiting in August 2014.
    Impossible to anchor in front of Hanga Roa, always during our stay -10 days- S to SW swell 3,5 m to 4 m!

    Anchorages of Hotuiti and of Anakeda alternative BUT very uncomfortable because of the swell not the same direction than the wind.
    Beautiful stop, winter, few people in sites.
