A View of Fare Harbour, Huahine, [Whole drawing]. A view of the harbour of Huahine [Fare Harbour]. with peaked mountains, including Mount Turi, in the background. In the bay is the 'Resolution' and many native craft, and on the shore a group of natives tend a double canoe with a deck-house. In the background and along the shore are native huts and English tents. The view gives the location of Omai's settlement. Captain Cook had agreed with the chiefs for a place for Omai to settle.
