    Nice Beach

    Nice beach, bring your own post-cards if you want to post from here as the “post office” occasionally runs out. Apart from the post office most other motus are just as good

    GO there for the novelty and beauty!

    A great place to go if you're tooling in a boat around the lagoon. Very interesting story behind One Foot Island. You can also get your passport stamped there! Worth the novelty to do it!
