Decision
as to ‘should we stay or should we go’ was made when I tried to book diving for
the next day and everywhere was full so it was off and away next morning. Surprisingly we picked up wind when we left the
bays of Alor and got the sails out to sail a lovely reach along the coast on
relatively flat seas. We carried on
through the night with sail changes and a bit of motoring and reached Flores
early the next morning. We dropped
anchor at the first anchorage Gedong and were very happy to jump into a crystal
clear very warm sea with some nice corals.
After a swim we moved on as there was still a bit of wind and we made it
to the next anchorage North Hading Bay which was a beautiful deserted white sand
beach with lovely clear sea and good snorkelling.
