Likuri Island (Robinson Crusoe Island)

As soon as we could we paid the marina fees in Musket Cove and left the dock. The winds were light so we motored the entire way to Likuri Island using the headsail for a small boost. We had four lines out and hoped for a deep sea catch on the leg outside of the main reefs. All we caught was a plastic bag. We did lose one lure which suggests we snagged something of a decent size.

We arrived in time for lunch then went ashore to catch the daytime show for the tourists who come to the island for just the day. The show was pretty good although the dancing was very similar to the Polynesian dancing we saw in the Cooks and French Polynesia.

After the show we joined Pam and John from Passages for a beer and chatted for a while after which we booked Ben on a beginners dive course which he will do over the next few days.

We returned to the boat for a while and then went back to the resort for dinner. We’d been told it was ‘build your own burger’ night which got quite a few votes. It turned out to be pasta and fish curry night which turned out pretty good. While ashore the heavens opened so we waited a while before deciding to go back in the torrential rain. We did, of course, get soaked and the rain did, of course, stop as soon as we arrived.

The resort here is very low key and quite sleepy, at least when the day tourists are not around. It’s a good spot to while away a few days.

I forgot to mention that while in Musket Cove I uploaded earlier pictures. These have been added to the appropriate blog entries so for those interested I suggest a walk back through the last week or sos blog entries.
