Rurutu
 
Rurutu is a small island of about 36 square miles, an hour and a half by plane from Tahiti. The Australis highest mountain peak is on Rurutu and reaches an altitude of 1270 feet. Its geological structure is unique in Polynesia as this island features a smaller lagoon and is surrounded by steep cliffs with several caves with stalactites and stalagmites created by water drops over millions of years. This is why it is sometimes called the “Troglodyte island”. Those caves constitutes one of the major points of interest.
