They surround a big, beautiful blue lagoon, like a giant swimming pool just for the islands!

A Home for Thousands of Years!

People have lived on Majuro for a very, very long time, even longer than your grandparents or great-grandparents! They were the first people to sail across the ocean and find these amazing islands.
