To the Top of Taveuni Island
We left a very
overcast Albert Cove at nine fifteen in a fine drizzle, but as always,
nothing dents the skippers smile.
We wiggled through the reef and soon
in deep water, Scott-Free to our
right.
We could see
nothing of Nuku as we motor-sailed by.
Both safely through ‘the gate’ below Katherine Bay.
Taveuni
Island to our right, we move from thirty to three hundred feet of
water.
We made our way slowly into anchor
near the airport at Naselesele Point.
Behind the reef, we can
see one yacht in the anchorage.
To our left a tiny island that
has great reef snorkelling.
Reef
breaking at high tide to our left, we found a patch of sand in fifteen
feet of water.
Taveuni has masses of coconut trees, at one time the island was one
single plantation. Fish supper on Beez and we are all ready to explore tomorrow
at eight. Chief Iowani has organised a driver to take us over the
island.
ALL IN ALL A REALLY PLEASANT
TRIP
AN EASY JOURNEY WEAVING BETWEEN REEF
