Anchored in blue waters with amazing scenery around us. We are anchored on sand with some coral patches, so hopefully the chain is not too wrapped up and we can get away tomorrow.
There are two resorts here, one locally run and one run by an American woman. The first one is cheap and cheerful and has lots of atmosphere and guests, the second one is beautiful, but no guests. We have had a meal in both, but enjoyed the one in the cheaper resort most. the more expensive resort has diving, so yesterday we went out in their boat with the dive master (a young Spanish man). Duncan did two dives and I snorkeled on this amazing wall of coral. Lots of beautiful fish, shoal of yellow fin tuna (small ones) an amazing variety of fish, lots I had not seen before.
