Makemo atoll

Ultimate guide (November 2025)
Makemo is a large atoll in French Polynesia. There is a nice beach near Teanuanua guesthouse, as well as small lake in the west of atoll (Komo Mokorea). There is also village with relatively good infrastructure. Of course, boat tours around the atoll's lagoon are always available. So it is a good spot to visit real Polynesia without crowds. Shore and seabed: stones, sand. [edit]
This island ranks #12 of the "Best islands in French Polynesia"
