A low-slung skiff parts the lagoon at first light and Rangiroa’s motu rises like a ring of sand and black rock against an endless blue. Salt stings briefly; the boat smells of diesel and sunscreen. On the ocean side, jagged volcanic rock has been carved by wind and wave into pools that glint like dark mirrors. The motu dares you to explore—between sun-warmed coral gardens and shaded coconut groves.
