Takapoto Information

Takapoto embodies the dream of paradise.Named also “short chin”, this wild and idyllic atoll has no channel which explains its very preserved environment. The 10 miles long lagoon is the home of the Pinctada Margaritifera, Tahitian cultured pearl. In Okukina, you may eat sea urchins or giant clams with lime after a visit to the fish parks.

Highly visited for research purposes, archaeologists are often combing her shores. So far, about 20 “marae”and over 200 sites have been numbered and are of great interest to travellers. From the main village of Fakatopatere, laying between the lagoon and the ocean, one can see those typical Polynesian “fare”built on stilts, whose owner's hospitality is legendary.
