Terau Beach Bungalow

Abaiang · 5 rooms

A guesthouse with five thatched accommodations beside the lagoon, shared bathrooms, breakfast included and a restaurant and bar.

Abaiang is an atoll about 50 kilometers north of Tarawa, a long, narrow ring of islets with a calm lagoon, villages and a Catholic mission church that is a local landmark. It is far less crowded than South Tarawa, and it offers a window onto village life in Kiribati, with weaving, fishing and communal meals.
