WiFi: there is a WiFi (available at anchorage), name ViniSPOT, but it’s not free and rather quite slow. One hour cost about 4EUR, 20hrs – 40 EUR (payment via internet with credit card). In 2016 the system worked wrong and with 1hr credit you can surf all the time.
Hitehau is a graceful little village dominated by a crescent of black sand, soaring peaks and immaculate colorful gardens. The peaks are abut 300m high, on one of them is a white statue if the Virgin Mary, exected in 1872.

In the village visit a church during Sunday service, there are 2 groceries and nice restaurant with local food (they accept credit card).
