Tauna is an islet in the Gambier Islands of French Polynesia.[1]
In and around Polynesia, islets are commonly referred to as Motu, a term used for the coral-rubble islets typical of the region.[2]
During a recent filming of the television show GT Hunters[3] on Tauna in April 2014, the locals of the village of Rikitea[4] began to unofficially refer to the small island as Motu Topher, after the cinematographer who fell deeply in love with the island.
