Ordered from north to south, the main eight Saukhin Islands are Kuapa, Vana Vana, Turpin, Chuli, Auapka, Tapakata, Laui, and ~~Ato'Ato~~. In addition, the western barrier of the archipelago to the south of Chuli features the smaller three islands of Pazani, Kapio, and Tahua'na, which make up the West Saukhin archipelago. To the south of Ato'Ato features the island of Tapikota, which has a population of about 9,000. Just below Tapakata is the well-known islet of Kopa Lopa, which, along with neighboring [[Urcea|Urcean territory]] [[Rapa Rapa]], is a prominent tourist destination, and is usually the highlight of the archipelago in the eyes of the international community. There are also several smaller islets and atolls throughout the open water area of the archipelago, however these are mostly unnamed, uninhabited, and have no significance besides marine biological research.
