15deg48'.22S, 146deg09'.57W

We spent a week in south Fakarava, at Tmakohua pass, where we went scuba diving. We dove at 30 meters, there was lots of grey reef sharks, white tip sharks, black tip sharks and nursing sharks. We also saw some manta rays, marble groupers, parrot fishes, lion fish, ... amazing!!!.
We sailed to Fakarava north, Rotoava where we stayed a couple of days and we saw Antoine's boat., and today we sailed to Toau. Just another beautiful atoll!!:)
Tomorrow morning we will go lobster fishing!!

Fakarava, Tetamanu

06/06/11
16deg31'13"S, 145deg28'24W

we anchored at the south pass of fakarava, waiting for the end of marabu, strong winds from south east. We might be lucky to witness the spawning of groupers and see the frenzy shark attacks. We should stay there a few days before going to the north pass and then sail to Taou, supposed to be a beautiful anchorage and then we will leave the Tuamotu and the friendly poamotus for the society islands : ia orana Tahiti!
