To Likuliku Bay, Waya Island,
Yasawa Group, Fiji
We jumped up this morning ready to
leave Musket Cove behind, not saying we might pop back, but the wind would have
to have turned itself off for that to happen. A young
man made himself useful as a reef marker.
Our thirty four
mile journey was a little bit of a wiggle around some well known reefs
and in some places in quite deep water. Our destination was half way up Waya
Island and our cruising notes said that the scenery on the way was the best in
Fiji. Camera at the ready then.
To our right we saw a new resort in the making.
A bigger
one around the first corner.
A home with a
view.
The sun came out and the blues were incredible. A lady
motored by.
An inter-island
catamaran to our left.
More islands and
reefs off to our left.
In black and
white the islands have distance between them.
Very hilly with
volcanic plugs.
We pass the bottom of Waya Island.
We didn’t expect this topography in
Fiji. Very volcanic.
The south-western aspect
of Waya Island.
The terrain dwarfs the
cruise catamaran.
Dramatic. The cruising notes were not wrong.
Things round off a
little.
Meanwhile, we steer inside a reef.
Our anchorage for
the night was just beyond the catamaran, beside a small resort –
originally built by an Austrian.

over our right shoulder.
ALL IN ALL SOME INCREDIBLE
SCENERY
A GENTLE MOTOR AMONGST THE PICTURESQUE
