Arutua

Located close to Rangiroa, this circular-shape atoll, with its 29 km diameter, is composed of 57 groups of islets surrounding a huge lagoon that owns an islet in its center, a extremely uncommon situation.

The main village of Rautini, built near the Porofai pass, requires a half hour ride by boat to be reached from the airport.

Its activity is mostly oriented to pearl farming as well as lagoon fishing using the many fish parks available inside the huge lagoon.
