description Tarawa Lagoon Overview
Tarawa Lagoon is the large, shallow body of water enclosed by Tarawa Atoll in Kiribati, an island country in the central Pacific Ocean. The lagoon is bordered by the atoll's narrow islets, including Betio, which was the main site of the Battle of Tarawa in November 1943 during World War II. Its geography is defined by the contrast between shallow lagoon water, the surrounding coral reef, and the ocean outside the atoll. The name refers both to a physical lagoon and to a place connected with Pacific war history.
