The westernmost group of islands in Kiribati

by Rusket - last update: Oct 17, 2005

Airport

Tarawa

The main island Tarawa, with Bonriki International Airport.

During our 3 1/2 week stay on the Gilberts we used Tarawa as our base, and made two journeys: To Abaiang and to Butaritari. Pictures from these journeys are in my travelogues here, while Tarawa has it's own page.

See also my general Kiribati page, and my Betio and Bairiki pages.

Jim35 has a page about his life as a child on the atoll Beru
