Laura Beach
The end of the ribbon - Majuro's widest sand and calmest lagoon corner at the atoll's leafy western tip.
Updated 3 September 2026

Majuro's single road runs its 50-kilometre ribbon to Laura, and the atoll saves its best sand for the finish: the western tip widens into the island's leafiest village district and its favourite beach - a broad white run on lagoon water that shallows warm and clear, picnic pavilions under the palms, and weekend family culture supplying the sociable version while weekdays leave the sand near-private. The drive itself tours the atoll's narrow reality - ocean one window, lagoon the other - and Laura's breadfruit-and-taro green closes it with the Marshalls' gentlest scene.
What's there
- The wide white run - the atoll's broadest sand.
- The lagoon shallows - warm, clear and family-calm.
- The ribbon drive - ocean-to-lagoon windows en route.
- Laura's green - breadfruit shade at the tip.
When to go
December to April with the trades; weekdays for quiet, weekends for the picnic scene. Sunset faces the lagoon kindly.
What to expect
Facilities are pavilion-simple and the community fee funds their keeping; currents live at the point's channel - swim the sheltered stretch.
Nearby
Majuro town's length and the Alele Museum.
