Small in size with no reef pass, this atoll was the birthplace of the royal Pomare family and was also renowned in days gone by for its fierce conquering warriors.

Since those times the island has become more friendly and now lives at the slow pace of the traditional activities of fishing and coprah making around the village of Tukuhora.
