Key Facts
Makin is an atoll and district located in the northernmost part of the Gilbert Islands within the Republic of Kiribati. Situated approximately 6 kilometers northeast of the larger Butaritari atoll, Makin forms part of the Gilbert Islands chain in the central Pacific Ocean. The atoll consists of a series of small islets surrounding a central lagoon, with a total land area of about 7.9 square kilometers. Makin has a population of approximately 1,800 people who primarily reside on the main islets of Makin and Kiebu. As a district, Makin is administratively divided into several villages and communities that maintain traditional Kiribati cultural practices. The local economy relies heavily on subsistence fishing and copra production, with limited infrastructure connecting it to other parts of Kiribati. Access to postal code information for Makin's various villages and communities is essential for mail delivery and administrative purposes within this remote Pacific island district.
