This massive private atoll is located at roughly 100 kilometres southwest of Hao and approximately 775 kilometres east of Tahiti (a 2 hour private flight from Tahiti). The atoll has an oval shape, which is 13 kilometres long and 8 kilometres wide (at its widest point) with a total emerged surface land area of 9 km2. It's vast and stunning internal lagoon spreads over some 67 km2. For the past twenty years has been the breeding waters of one of the world's most beautiful gems: The Tahitian Black Pearl. The waters of this atoll are densely populated with fish attesting to one of the many signs of the site's natural riches and minimal human impact in this geographical region. This natural formation is arguably one of nature's most extraordinary natural masterpieces.
A monthly cargo ship rotation services the atoll with supplies. As is often the case in the Tuamotu Archipelagos, the lagoon is the main attraction with a breathtaking, ever changing mosaic of deep blue distinctly contrasted with the emerald green tones of the waters graces the shores of the myriad of small islets and which together form the beautiful coral reef in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean. White and pink sand beaches sparkle as the gentle courants gently caresse the beaches edge, making any stroll a wondrous, exalting communion with self and nature. A surprising particularity of this atoll is the ability to see all the atoll's perimeters, regardless of the distance and point of view. Navigating within the lagoon waters would make any adult return to their childhood playfulness, providing an exceptional experience of pure pleasure. The never ending joy of discovering this atoll on a daily basis, is truly an intertwining of the feelings of natural power, adventure, euphoria and ultimate liberty.
One of just a few totally private atolls for sale in the world, ownership will distinguish the new owner with a place at the centre of a very privileged club of private atoll owners. It would provide the opportunity for its owner to organize their life and lifestyle exactly as they wish. A kingdom unto itself.
The atoll is a rare opportunity to create a luxury resort, an aquaculture base developed around the continued farming and expansion of the harvesting of the Tahitian Black Pearl and/or the development of what could be one of the world's unique natural idyllic destination retreats.
Basic living and operational structures and infrastructure currently exists on the island, accommodating roughly 80 workers. The new owner would be free to organize a complete reworking of the operations off the atoll and its future potential.
