Fatu Huku, also known as Fatu Uku, is a small island in the Marquesas Islands, approximately north of Hiva Oa. Fatu Huku is less than long and wide and has an area of about
==Government and geography==

Fatu Huku is located at 9.43°S latitude and 138.93°W longitude. It is administratively part of the commune (municipality) of Hiva Oa in the administrative subdivision of the Marquesas Islands.
The island is essentially a huge rock, looming steep-sided out of the ocean and rising to a flattened plateau with a maximum elevation of .〔Butaud Jean- Francois and Jacq,Frederic A. "Flora and Vegetation of the Small Uninhabited Islands of the Marquesas...." https://www.academia.edu/3468395/Flora_and_vegetation_of_the_small_uninhabited_islands_in_the_Marquesas_archipelago_of_French_Polynesia_relics_of_dry_biota_threatened_by_biological_invasions, accessed 4 Dec 2013〕 Fatu Hutu is the youngest of the volcanic Marquesas Islands, estimated to be only 1.3 million years old which accounts, in part, for its ruggedness as erosion has not yet carved out valleys and beaches. Coral is rare in the Marquesas but an ancient coral reef is found at the higher elevations of Fatu Hutu, the reef being raised above the sea by the volcanic activity that formed the island.〔"Marquesas Islands: Orientation" http://www.triposo.com/loc/Marquesas_Islands/orientation, accessed 4 Dec 2013〕
Fatu Huku is a dry island compared with most high islands in Polynesia, receiving only an estimated to of precipitation annually. The altitude is insufficient to capture much of the moisture from the predominantly easterly winds. The dryer conditions and steep terrain limit the variety of vegetation. Forty-eight percent of the land, mostly on top on the plateau, is covered with Pisonia forest; 21 percent is grassland, and 31 percent is sparsely vegetated rock. A few coconut trees inhabit coastal locations. Unlike inhabited islands, Fatu Huku has few non-native species of plants and is inhabited by sea birds and imported goats and rats.〔Butard and Jacq〕
