Video of effects of the 2/27/2010 tsunami at Tahauku in the Atuona bay, in Hiva Oa, Marquesas. The water level variation was 4m. The sea moved in and out several times with the same amplitude. The effect lasted several hours with diminishing amplitudes (like a rapid tide). Damage was limited: a small boat sunk, some canoes washed away, erosion of the pier...Video from Eric Olivier et Catherine Chavaillon.
