Yes, we are still in Fakarava and finding it very difficult to leave here. So far this has been one of the best places we have been to. In this episode we get a fresh delivery of food from the supply ship. All the sailors and locals head to the shop. As fresh produce is offloaded from the ship it goes directly onto the shelves off. The local shops. We try to buy everything we need and make sure we leave enough for everyone else. Despite everyone clambering around for the freshest produce, everyone is friendly and helpful. A Friend of ours, Keary, who also visited us in Panama has joined us again for some sailing. He came with loads of gifts for us and the boys. We couldn’t wait to get hime down to the South Pass for some snorkelling and to explore the pink sand beaches with us. As Per usual, the south pass never lets us down and we get to see some amazing Napoleon Wrasse, Black tip reef sharks and plenty of yellow snapper. I do think that the Pink Sand beach area of Fakarava is possibly one of the most beautiful areas in this region. We are the only people there and enjoy floating along the channel between the motus with the current from the outside of the reef to the inside of the atoll. The water is crystal clear and warm. Heaven on earth. We also go to Harifa which is a very popular kite surfing area within the atoll. Ashore we find some small pigs which often end up on the BBQ here if there are enough sailors wanting to take part. After exploring Haifa again, we make our way back to the north of Fakarave to get Keary back to the airport in time for his flight. Perfect timing as the supply ship was here again allowing us to do some more provisioning.
