MANGAREVA ISLAND (FRENCH POLYNESIA), PACIFIC OCEAN - JANUARY 2023 : View of a motu in the lagoon of Mangareva island on January 21, 2023, in the Gambier archipelago, Pacific Ocean. A motu is an islet of coral sand, usually sparsely covered with vegetation, mainly coconut palms. Sometimes poorly stabilized, they can either disappear of form following for instance a strong tropical depression. The word “motu” is of Tahitian origin and mean “cut off”, “separated”.
