    Overview

    Cikobia-i-Ra, also Thikombia Island, Tchecombia and Tikobia, is the northernmost island in Macuata Province, Fiji and has a primarily limestone geology. As the island is affected by climate change, women there have established the Cikobia Island Development Committee, which supports businesses that donate some profit to sustainability initiatives. The island has some of the earliest evidence for Lapita culture in the Pacific, as well as significant archaeological sites.
