Sunday 18th July

We left Sawa-i-Lau just after breakfast for a leisurely 6 mile sail to our next destination, the Blue Lagoon at Nanuya Sewa island. It wasn't quite as simple as just sailing from A to B, we had to avoid numerous reefs so our course was a bit of a zig zag.

We passed the pretty Oarsman's Bay

Then began navigating our way through narrow poorly marked passes to the anchorage

We went ashore for a drink in the resort bar which was located on this lovely beach

Beware falling coconuts!

Yet another glorious sunset!
