About this site
Rangiroa sits within the Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia, one of the largest atolls in the world, with its passes cutting through the surrounding reef into the lagoon. Hammerhead Mesa would be located somewhere along this atoll's outer slopes or near one of its passes, the areas typically accessed by boat from the main villages of Avatoru or Tiputa.
