Clear water at last. At least, clearer water than we've had for a while. For those who have never been here, northern Phang Nga Bay, as tropical and picturesque as it is, doesn't have clear water. It's pretty shallow and silty/muddy. As you head more south and stay off the coast, it begins to start looking more like the postcard you imagined. After spending awesome 4 days in Krabi eating at the local markets and exploring the city, we finally departed. As nice as it was to have everything right there, easy to access, we were still anchored in a river, in a city. Not what we got a yacht for. So today, after filling the water tanks at a local stilt house (for showering only!) on the edge of the Krabi river, we headed out and over to Ko Poda, a topical little island a few miles off Railay Beach. As it often is, the wind couldn't have been more perfectly on the nose. Like, dead on the whole way. This is happening too often to be a coincidence. Got a mooring ball just on the edge of the sand bar, 100m of the beach, and finally had a decent swim in somewhat clear water, and a walk around the island. We'll stay here the night and probably depart south in the morning to either Koh Phi Phi or Koh Lanta.
