Arno Atoll, an important part of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, about 33 kilometers southwest of the capital city of Majuro. This atoll of 133 coral islands, with a total area of approximately 130 square kilometers, surrounds a deep lagoon, creating a unique natural landscape. With a resident population of approximately 2,000, the inhabitants of the atoll rely mainly on fishing, coconut farming, and traditional handicrafts for their livelihoods, and retain deep Marshallese cultural traditions, particularly in the art of navigation and weaving. Ano Atoll is one of the most densely populated atolls in the Marshall Islands, and its lagoon is a potential destination for scuba divers due to its clear water and abundant marine life, as well as an important area for the study of the ecology of coral reefs in the Pacific Ocean. Epitomizing the cultural diversity of the Marshall Islands, Arno Atoll demonstrates the wisdom of its inhabitants to live in harmony with the sea.
