I woke this morning with the back of my legs sunburnt to a point that aloe vera gel was necessary but that didn’t stop us from snorkeling again today. I just wore long shorts and shirt.
The ship was moored off-shore again of the charming island of Mooréa. We will be spending several nights here later this week but for today, we enjoyed the warm waters inside the breakwaters, protected from the waves of the Pacific Ocean. A short boat ride took us past the Intercontinental Resort and to the small islets of Tiahura and Fahrenheit where we swam with stingrays, sharks and fish in beautiful coral gardens. The water was mostly chest high but had a very strong current. Many tourist were hanging out here as the boat crew spread food to attract the stingrays and black-tipped reef sharks. But we also saw many other beautiful fish and distinctive coral.
Fighting that current wore us out and made us very hungry! It’s a good thing we could get a nice big, juicy hamburger for a late lunch!
