After a day of recovery from our rather long crossing (we mainly lay around, sleeping eating and watching TV), we headed to shore to wonder around the Volcanic island.

First, we headed up the closest volcano-like thing, where we got a great view of our part of the island, nearby beaches and anchorage.

We then headed to the north shore to see the breaking waves and the few people surfing them.

The north shore also had many rock pools with all kinds of sea life in them.

The most interesting of which was a collection of hermit crabs all trying to get in line to swap shells. We watched for quite some time, but none of them could decide which one should take the new larger shell that they had found.

There was also a self righting sea snail.

Kathryn was craving pizza, so we headed to the main town of the island in search. There was a pizza place on Google maps that should have been open, but sadly not.

We ended up at the popular local restaurant where we had black squid ink paella.

The walk back to the anchorage took around 20-30 minuites and was lit by moonlight.

We spent much of the rest of our time in this anchorage snorkeling around. The water was so clear and warm we could see to the bottom with ease and didn’t need a wetsuit.

This also gave us an opportunity to dive on our anchor to see how close to the rocks we were.
