Motu Mauu features such scenery as well.

Here is a quote from Pascal Charaix:
IA ORA NA And if your dream comes true by treating yourself to a Private Island in Paradise! Private residence and/or idyllic high-end hotel, in complete privacy, pearl farm or vineyard, all projects are viable as long as nature and traditional culture are preserved. From Marlon Brando, to Diana Ross, to the director of Cirque du Soleil, many personalities have crossed the threshold of this peaceful and still attractive life that is French Polynesia. French Polynesia is one of the most incredible and heavenly places on Earth. The atoll has its own airfield 10 minutes from Motu. Named Motu (meaning island in Polynesian) MAUU, this paradise island offers you beaches of fine sand but also coral and a very beautiful coconut grove. Its exotic corals and marine life guarantee you unforgettable dives. Its 127,232 m2 make it the largest private island still available for sale. Untouched by any construction, everything is possible, from a private residence to a high-end ecological hotel complex, a copra crop or even a pearl farm…or all of this at the same time is possible due to its surface area. almost 13 hectares! Rangiroa Atoll and its airport are just 25 minutes away by boat and daily flights serve it from Tahiti. It is the largest in Polynesia and one of the most recognized scuba diving destinations. You will find many shops, restaurants, schools, materials merchants, and even a French vineyard! The sale will be made before a French and/or Polynesian Notary. Under French law, the sale will be in full ownership and not under a long lease or occupation contract as is the case for 90% of the Islands for sale in the World. A surveyor commissioned by the Polynesian and French State visited the Motu a few years ago and concluded that the Motu Mauu had gained in surface area due to sea currents and the addition of sand and corals. The Motu does not suffer from rising water levels due to global warming or erosion but benefits from this phenomenon via the supply of sediments and the expansion of its surface area. Its highest point being at 3 meters above sea level. A French public scientific organization confirmed this in a very detailed report which can be annexed to the sale and contractually initialed. To your dreams to your desires… Sincerely Pascal Charaix
