Experience the magic of the Tuamotus
350 Km northwest from Tahiti and after one hour by plane, Tikehau is a delicate coral atoll only 26 Km in diameter. While it is only a pipsqueak in comparison to its gargantuan neighbor Rangiroa, the tiny atoll encompasses all the beauty and charms that characterize the Tuamotu Archipelago.
Connected to the sea via only one pass, Tikehau’s lagoon is perhaps more deserving of the word “paradisiacal” than most atolls due to its particularly blue lagoon and never ending swaths of white and pink sand beaches. The beauty on land is equaled underwater as the atoll has the reputation of having one of the most dense fish population in the world. To enjoy it, you only need to put on a mask, fins and a snorkel and plunge in. For those searching for complete solitude, head out to any of the wild and remote islets that encircle the lagoon and make up the heart of this unique landscape. This is the magic of the Tuamotus and the magic of Tikehau.
