Located in the Lalique Islands chain of the Marshall Islands in the west-central Pacific Ocean, Aur Atoll is a typical marine atoll ecosystem consisting of 42 small coral islands in a ring with a vast lagoon in the center. The atoll covers an area of about 15 square kilometers, with a land area of only 5.3 square kilometers and a population of about 300, mainly living on Taka Island. The local people live on coconut plantation, fishing, and retain traditional navigation and canoe making skills. The waters surrounding the atoll are rich in coral reefs and are home to tropical fish and marine life, offering potential for eco-tourism. As an important part of the Marshall Islands, its natural and cultural landscapes showcase the unique charm of a Pacific island nation.
