Stay in my shell.. 🤪
Island was freed from Japanese occupation in WWII by US and gained it's indepence in 1979.
Made from coconuts.. along with baskets made from pandanus leaves.
Local name for the conch shell used by ancient Chamorro people to call everyone to assemble.
Common around island as gathering spot for community events or simply a spot for a siesta.
Nice spot to catch a sunset but not a well kept up area.
And scenery on the arrival into Tarawa.
Not our flight 🤪
Decent stay with friendly and helpful staff.
