Manihi Island is an atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia, located in the center of the South Pacific Ocean. As a typical coral atoll, it consists of fine sand islands and lagoons, with a land area of about 13 square kilometers and a vast lagoon area of 160 square kilometers.
Manihi Island is known for its pristine natural beauty, crystal clear lagoon and rich marine life, making it an ideal place for diving enthusiasts. Dotted with coconut groves and white sandy beaches, the island maintains an intact tropical ecosystem, with turtles, tropical fish and even whale sharks visible in the surrounding waters.
The inhabitants of the island are mainly engaged in fishing and coconut cultivation, but in recent years they have gradually developed eco-tourism. The traditional Polynesian culture has been preserved, with a population of about 1,000 people living a quiet and simple lifestyle. There is a small airport connecting the island to the main island of Papeete, and the infrastructure is simple enough to meet basic tourist needs.
Manihi Island is for travelers seeking an escapist experience featuring snorkeling, sea fishing and stargazing. The best time to travel is during the dry season from May to October. Travelers should be aware that atoll resources are limited and should plan their trip in advance and respect local environmental regulations.
