Taborio, Kiribati: The Serene Capital of a Pacific Island Nation

Tarawa, the capital of the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, is located on Tarawa Atoll in the central Gilbert Islands and is the political, economic and cultural heart of the country. The low-lying coral atoll covers an area of approximately 13 square kilometers and is densely populated with nearly half of Kiribati's total population, making it one of the smallest capitals in the world. Taborio consists of a number of small islands connected by bridges and has a tropical maritime climate with high temperatures throughout the year, averaging about 29°C per year, making it vulnerable to the threat of sea level rise. The local economy is based on fishing and copra exports, while tourism is growing due to the unique World War II sites (such as the battlefields of Beribeyo) and traditional village culture. Kiribati and English are spoken by the majority of the population, and Kiribati is a window to the island experience with its Pacific Aboriginal culture of canoeing, traditional songs and dances.
