Makatea

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

AirVuz contributor 5rock brings us this excellent drone video of the South Pacific island of Makatea.  Makatea is one of the Tuamotus, a group of about 80 islands spread across a vast area and part of French Polynesia.  Surrounded by cliffs and with a plateau covering much of its interior, Makatea covers about nine square mi. (around 24 square km) and is about five mi. long (around nine km) at its longest.  Once home to a (now-closed) phosphate mine, it has a permanent population of only a few dozen residents.
