Anchored at Palau Sabuda, West Papua

Bowen Mercy

We dropped anchor in 25 meters (that’s shallow for here), but lucky we stern tied ourselves to a tree 🌴 on the beach putting our rear steps in a perfect 1 meter. This meant we could simply step off the back of Tayrona right onto our very own beach! 🏝️ We spent the day swimming in the crystal-clear waters of this stunning atoll like anchorage and finished it off with dinner cooked over an open fire. Just as we were settling in, two friendly fishermen appeared for a chat, and we shared a Coca-Cola with them. Before they left, we gifted one of them one of our old snorkels—small moments that make these experiences unforgettable. 🌅⚓
