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.
