La daabacay: 19.05.2022
Today breakfast on the terrace again, although the sky is covered, but our grandpa predicts good weather again during his morning exercise. And he should be right.
We set off for another snorkeling spot - Port Launey National Park - a small bay in the north of the island, where we have been once on our previous vacation. It is raining heavily on the way there, but it is at least dry when we arrive, only the sun still refuses to show up. This time we have to swim a bit further out to be rewarded with a real coral park, we rarely see so many living corals in one place and it is truly impressive. Even without the sun, the underwater world shines for us and we spend a while in the waters. We are actually the only ones snorkeling here and we enjoy having this paradise all to ourselves. Many small fish babies among the corals make us feel like we are in an aquarium - you could linger here for hours. As soon as we get out of the water, it starts pouring again, so we quickly change clothes in the car and slowly head back home...
On the way back, we make a short stop at the Port Glaud Waterfalls - even we 'hiking experts' find the little hiking trail to get there and the whole rain must have at least one advantage, the waterfalls are filled.
When we arrive home, the sun is shining again and we spontaneously decide to take a small tour with the house's kayaks, actually we were planning to go snorkeling to an island about - I would estimate maybe 1500m away - but somehow the kayak starts moving on its own and we have a hard time making progress. If we weren't convinced of our Hawaiian kayaking skills, we would have doubted our abilities, so we blame the wind and strong waves for the turns in circles. Well, we finally turn around and enjoy the afternoon at home. With good reading, the sound of waves, and a sea view, it's wonderful to relax and another unique day in paradise comes to an end.
