Nengonengo is a small atoll of the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia. It is located 53 km southeast of Ravahere, its closest neighbor, and 100 km southwest of Hao Atoll.

Nengonengo Atoll is roughly bell-shaped. It measures 13 km in length with a maximum width of 8 km. It has a wide lagoon with a surface 67 km². There is a narrow pass to enter the lagoon on the north side, but no charted data appears to be available.

Nengonengo has a very small population. It is actually occupied exclusively by the pearl farms belonging to Mr. R. Wan.

History

The first recorded European who arrived to Nengonengo was Englishman Samuel Wallis in 1767. He named it "Prince William Henry".

The small private airport on Nengonengo was inaugurated in 1993. It is owned by the Wan pearl company.

Administration

Nengonengo Atoll belongs to the commune of Hao, which includes Ahunui (uninhabited), Nengonengo, Manuhangi (uninhabited) and Paraoa (uninhabited).
