In the Tuamotu region, those atolls at water level, we discover a unique island, an impregnable fortress whose cliffs soar 300 feet above the sea. Makatea is one of the highest atolls in the world, to the point where geologists have given its name to all the islands that have thrust towards the sky, before being worn down by millions of years of erosion.This island with its particular destiny has its dark side and its share of mystery.
