Hana Vave is the name of the northernmost bay on the west coast of Fatu Hiva in French Polynesia.The bay is sometimes called the Bay of Virgins, a translation of the French name Baie des Vierges.
The French name originally given to the bay was Baie des Verges, because of the phallus-shaped basalt spires that rise on either side of its entrance.
Hana Vave is also the name of a small village located at the head of the bay, which in 2020 had an estimated population of 346.
