Green Lagoon

Celebrated for its unique remoteness and almost surreal beauty, Green Lagoon in Fakarava, French Polynesia, is situated in one of the largest atolls in the Tuamotu Archipelago. The lagoon features a stunning array of vibrant aquatic hues—from deep blues to bright turquoises—created by its shallow sandy bottom and rich coral life. Designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, it ensures the protection of its diverse ecosystems and endemic species, making it a prime spot for ecotourism and conservation studies. Access is typically by small boat, enhancing its appeal as a secluded paradise. Visitors enjoy a beach experience unlike any other and the opportunity to snorkel in crystal-clear waters, observing abundant sea life in their natural habitat.
