South Pacific - Michael Runkel, Stephan Weissenborn

The natural beauties of Oceania's island world, scattered far across the South Pacific and divided into the cultural areas of Polynesia, Micronesia and Melanesia, are overwhelming. But besides lonely palm islands, ever-warm lagoons and colorful coral reefs, there are also more rugged beauties such as the volcanic islands of Marquesas, where beaches are rare. The book shows in over 400 photographs the unique beauty of the region.
