Olimarao, Coral atoll in Yap State, Federated States of Micronesia.

Olimarao encompasses two small islets on its reef system, with Olimarao Island at the northeast end and Falipi Island in the southwestern section.

The atoll transferred from German control in 1899 to Japanese administration under the South Seas Mandate, later becoming part of the Federated States of Micronesia in 1979.

The atoll maintains traditional sea turtle hunting grounds, representing the maritime practices of Micronesian communities in the Caroline Islands region.

Access to the atoll requires sea transportation, with two passages into the lagoon located along the southern edges of the reef system.

The atoll contains two distinct lagoons in its northern section, connected by a submarine ridge to Elato through its southern component, Lamolior.
