Shoot the Pass
Fakarava is part of a biosphere reserve classified by
Unesco owing to the rich diversity of its ecosystem.

pass named “Garuae” is the largest one in the Tuamotus Islands
and probably holds the biggest density of fishes with amazing pelagic
encounter ever seen.

Fakarava.

Lagoons are shallow coastal bodies of water
separated from the ocean by a series of barrier islands which
lie parallel to the shoreline. Inlets, either natural or man-made,
cut through barrier islands and permit tidal currents to transport
water into and out of the lagoons. Because lagoons are characteristically
shallow, they are strongly influenced by precipitation and evaporation,
which results in fluctuating water temperature and salinity |
