Beach At Tiputa Pass In Rangiroa
A Brown Noddy (Anous stolidus) is seen at Tiputa Pass in Avatoru, Rangiroa, French Polynesia, on May 27, 2026. Rangiroa is the largest atoll in the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia and is renowned as a premier global destination for scuba diving and snorkeling. Tiputa Pass is a deep channel connecting the ocean to the inner lagoon and is known for its intense currents. The pass is home to various marine life, including dolphins, manta rays, and reef sharks. The Brown Noddy is known locally in Tahiti and the Society Islands as Oio. (Photo by Creative Touch Imaging Ltd./NurPhoto)
