French Polynesia Tuamotu Archipelago FS9/FSX Addon Scenery

Group A

Arutua

Arutua is located close to Rangiroa.
This circular-shape atoll with a diameter 29 km, is composed of 57 groups of islets that enclose a huge lagoon.
In the explanation concerning Arutua, there is only one islet in the lagoon.
In my scenery, a lot of islets are sprinkled on the lagoon. Most islets might exist under the surface of the sea.
However, the submerged islets might look splendid islands from the sky .
In the lagoon,many fish beds and Tahiti cultured pearl farms are being sprinkled.
I imagine the outline of this atoll looks like a chestnut :-)).
