There's information provided on the individual islands that make up the Marquesas Islands and there's also some extra links provided on the side to talk about books, history, and arts and craft.

9. Islands of the South Pacific (1:13:44) - "A comprehensive program on the Islands of the South Pacific, from Fiji, Tonga and Samoa, to Tahiti, The Marqueesas and Bora Bora. We explore every island in the vast South seas, meeting the people, enjoying the sights, the food, the history and the music of the magical mosaic of tropical islands. The program also includes explorations of the underwater worlds that make diving in Fiji, diving in Tonga, diving in Riatea and diving in the south pacific so popular."
