The Disappointment Islands (French: Îles du Désappointement) are a subgroup of the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia. They are located towards the northeast, away from the main Tuamotu group.
The Disappointment Islands are a small group of coral islands, which includes the island of Tepoto and the atoll of Napuka. Puka-Puka, 290 kilometres (180 mi) to their southeast, is often included in this subgroup.[1]
These islands are arid, and are not especially conducive to human habitation.[2]
