What to Know About Kuria

Key Facts

Kuria is an atoll located in the Gilbert Islands chain of Kiribati, situated in the central Pacific Ocean. This small coral atoll consists of two main islands, Buariki and Oneeke, connected by a causeway, and lies approximately 100 kilometers north of Aranuka and 150 kilometers southeast of the capital atoll Tarawa. With a total land area of just 15.48 square kilometers surrounding a large lagoon, Kuria is one of the smaller inhabited atolls in the Gilbert Islands group. The atoll has a population of around 1,000 people who primarily engage in subsistence fishing and copra production. Administratively, Kuria is divided into two main villages that correspond to its two islands, with local governance falling under the broader Gilbert Islands provincial administration system. The atoll's economy relies heavily on traditional marine resources and limited agricultural activities, with transportation primarily dependent on inter-island shipping services connecting it to other parts of Kiribati. For those seeking detailed postal and administrative information about Kuria's specific villages and communities, comprehensive resources are available to help navigate the atoll's limited but organized settlement structure.
