The population of the region is less than 1000 thousand people, so travelers always feel complete peace and serenity to manikhs. The largest settlement is Paeoa. The discoverer of the Atoll Manihi is the Dutch traveler, the demotter Willem Cornelis Skhauten, who noticed the island in 1616.

The lagons of Atoll Manihi are something amazing and completely indescribable, fantastic sight of the magic shades of water, surrounded by a chain of islands and endless beaches with white sand.

Almost any of the islands can be fishing, using both traditional fishing methods, and those that have been used for thousands of years. Deep -sea fishing is common.
