Tourist attractions on Tetiaroa
The islandTiny coral ring, Tetiaroa gives a good idea of original eden with its white sand beaches and crystallyne lagoon. Nothing surprising that Marlon Brando, its owner since 1966, fell under its spell when shooting « Mutiny on the Bounty ».
Unique atoll of the Windward Islands, Tetiaroa is a 4,5 miles diameter, closed world surrounded by 13 motus (islets) covered with coconut trees, and enclosed by coral reef. The lack of channel keeps the charm of this atoll intact and a preserved nature. Among this wonderful set of islets, Tahuna Iti, the birds island, far from any human population, can be considered as a natural reserve for sea birds. Frigates, sterns, phaetons (straw tails), brown gannets and other petrels favour this place for breeding purposes, and can be observed by discreet visitors.
