Tikehau is an almost circular atoll, with an interior lagoon 26km (16 miles) across and a pass for small boats through the corla reef.

When Jacques Cousteau's research group made a study of the Polynesian atolls in 1987, they declared the lagoon of Tikehau to contain the most fish.

Fish parks earn an income for many of the atoll's 312 inhabitants, who regularly ship parrot fish and other choice lagoon fish to Tahiti.
