Anchored in the Tahanea lagoon, boom tent up. It is amazing that this lagoon is one of 77 atolls in the Tuamotos and we can barely see the motus on the other side of the lagoon ( our horizon is 4 miles, this lagoon abt 6 miles wide and 12 N miles long, there are several bigger too!)
Diving into the water is just lovely, abt 25 degree water and as clear as gin. We went for a snorkel in the pass yesterday, lots of fish and a couple of reef sharks cruising along, so gracefully, just checking out these new arrivals.
After a chill out day or two, we will head for the village and try and get some fruit, lets see. Not much here & that's fine. The fish are jumping and the bird life is great, Frigate birds soaring overhead as I write this.

Have a great day.
