| Description: | The only remaining Pacific monarchy is the isolated Kingdom of Tonga. Starting here, Naomi James, famed for her solo circumnavigation, takes us on a 5,000-mile trip. On board a 19th century sailing ketch to Tahiti, we explore the beautiful Society Islands, including Bora Bora, from above and below the water. This episode reveals the breathtaking beauty as well as the underside of Paradise. Racially, politically, and economically, Polynesia today is one of the most unsettled parts of the world. The journey ends at Easter Island, one of the most primeval, lonely, and remote places on earth. |
