Fakarava
Atoll, An hour and a half flight
from Papeete ( 3 times a week,
Mon,wed. and Fr.), rectangular-shaped
Fakarava is the second largest
atoll in the Tuamotu, 37 miles
long by 15 miles wide. It has
a very large pass at the north
end and a smaller one at the
south end.
Rotoava
village has a small airport
and is located 6 miles from
the Garuae pass (one-kilometer
wide). It is a charming village,
home to most of the atoll's
248 inhabitants. The only other
- sort of - settlement (10 people
) is on Tetamanu motu (islet)
located at the opposite end
of the lagoon next to the smaller
but prettier pass.
Fakarava's
immense lagoon has several black
pearl farms, idyllic white sand
beaches and is peppered with
small islands, homes to many
breeds of nesting birds oblivious
to visitors.
The
passes provide endless and exciting
discoveries for snorkelers and
scuba divers in dream-like purple
water where 150 foot visibility
is the norm.
