The western end of the bay, then! 21*55.804S - 166*38.595E - With the wind staying below 5 Kts, there was little risk of rolling. BAM! The anchor dropped through 8 meters of rust-color water, sunk into the earthy bottom, and just stuck there. Lovely anchorage indeed, and not a soul around… no fish either… but a good overnight stop in Pure Nature.
- The sandy beach on the eastern side of the bay is private: no anchoring there!
- The southern part of the bay seems to offer great protection from the Trades, but as we tried to set the anchor, we only bit into coral rubble… not good!
