Had sunny skies and a perfect sailing day with 20knot SE winds. Averaged over 7 knots in the 6 hours sail to Namena. Snorkeld the gorgeous coral reef here, corals of lime green, deep green with dark blue tips, dusky pinks fringed with deep burgandy, cream stalks with "forget-me-not blue" tips. Thronging with fish, loads of very large parrot fish. Some blue with bright pink markings, others blue with purple and yellow and green. Very striking. A large turtle let us swim very close by. So beautiful. Our anchorage is beside an area inhabited by large sea birds, they look a bit like gannets, but they have blue beaks. They appear to have nests here. As we sipped on gin and tonics and watched the sun dip down over the horizon, the sea birds flew home, circling above us on invisible air currents, back to their nests for the night. Another special day.
