Tarawa

Place, Island

A little-known isle ringed by jagged rocks and dangerous currents that make it unreachable by boat, though local tribesmen dive for pearls in its waters.

From the book

Little is known of Tarawa. Jagged rocks and dangerous currents ring it, so no boat can land there. Some local tribesmen still visit, however, because the surrounding waters are said to be full of pearl-bearing shellfish.
