After surviving a cyclone in Fiji we had to say go

After surviving a cyclone in Fiji we had to say goodbye to our good friends and sailed alone to Vanuatu to see the impressive activ vulcano Yasur. After a short overnight stay in new Caledonia we finally made it to Australia. So we finished our sailing around the half world

From the Societies we did a short stopover on the Cook Islands to see the beautiful place of Suwarrow. In August we sailed to the kingdom of Tonga, where we met wonderful people and had a good time swimming with the whales. In Fiji we joyned a typical cava ceremony and did some more hikes and dives in the clearest water.

We had a wonderful year 2023! We started in the beautiful Marquesas and sailed over to the more remote atols of the Tuamotus where we had some beautiful dives and beaches. After that we visited almost every Island of the Societies, did some surfing, kiting, hiking, biking, partying on the beach and lots more.

Review After leaving Vanuatu we stopped overnight

Review
After leaving Vanuatu we stopped overnight in New Caledonia at Casy Island in the big Prony Bay, south-east of the main island. It was a short 1,5 day sailing from Vanuatu. We arrived in the morning so that we had time to clean the hull again, because for Australia it supposed to be really clean, even more than it was for Galapagos. Grabbing a free mooring buoy and doing a little bit of snorkeling, we saw a big shipwreck just 10m under our boat. We didn't put our dinghy down, because we still had to cross over to Australia, so there was no way for us to go on land except of swimming. We were lucky that a friend of ours arrived and brought us some nice local Manta beer to welcome us. With his dingy he took us to the island, where we did a nice walk around. The natur was so different to the one we saw in the pacific. We found the endemic New Caledonia pine which is a distinctive narrowly conical tree growing up to 60 m. The trees have a slender, spire-like crown and stand far out alongside the other smaller plants. The middle of the island was much drier and looked more like being on mars. The red color of the hills comes from the nickel mining which accounts for 90% of the exports. Where the metal is mined, diverse and lush vegetation is destroyed and the red earth is revealed.

We had an incredible experience at the volcano Yas

We had an incredible experience at the volcano Yasur in Tanna Island. Vanuatu was originally not on our plan to visit. The volcano was the only reason to do the little detour on our way to Australia. Friends of ours told us about the volcano so we wanted to see it with our own eyes. In retrospect we regret that we didn't have more time to visit Vanuatu. It is such a nice original and traditional country. We met so many lovely people who don't have much, but everything to be happy. But back to Yasur. Since 800 years the volcano is more or less permanently active and has around 500 eruptions per day. You can do a tour all the way up to the double crater in about 400m height which have a diameter of more than 300m and are 150m deep. We got there in the afternoon with daylight to see the enormous crater and stayed after sunset to see the eruptions in the dark, and it was stunning. Every few minutes there was a big bang and you could see the red magma shooting out or just black and blue steam coming out. It was so impressive to see right into the mouth of the volcano when it's spitting. We also felt respectful to that power of our earth and didn't want to do a wrong step, because it was going down very steep and there are no rails. We couldn't get enough of this spectacle and in the dark it seemed that Yasur was more active. But at one point we had to go back down and it was a good idea to bring headlights or torches. Even the ride to and back from the volcano was an adventure. We were sitting in the back of a pick-up truck, without any safety and the roads for the 10km drive were pretty bad. So the truck was leaning over several times and you had to hold on not to slide off the truck. In the end it was a successful and very interesting day at the volcano and some more good days in the village of Port Resolution.

We visited 5 of the 7 larger islands of the Yasawa

We visited 5 of the 7 larger islands of the Yasawa Group. And it was amazing. The Yasawas consist of 7 larger islands and countless smaller islands. They are quite sparsely populated and very natural. There are some still very original villages with very nice locals who warmly welcomed us into their village community with the typical Yasawa song. We visited the wonderful Sawa I Lau Caves, a seemingly endless cave system, where we could dive from cave to cave, climb and jump through and from small rock cliffs. There are wonderful beaches, countless hikes with towering views over the wonderful island group. We even had the opportunity to attend a Sunday mass, which was impressive with its loud and wonderful singing and was completely different from the church visits we had previously experienced.

Yes, we're in Fiji, finally! Everybody told us how

Yes, we're in Fiji, finally! Everybody told us how beautiful it is. And we can definitely confirm that. This new country is our 31th on this trip. And it's different to the ones we've seen before. You can see, we're not in Polynesia anymore. The people are really nice, and have a touch of India. You have a lot more shops and the market is full of vegetables again. And the prices are so reasonable. Since we're in Savusavu, we've been eating out almost every day. We wanted to see a little bit more of Vanua Levu, the second biggest island of Fiji and since we're 23 friends now, we would have to take a lot of regular cars, so we decided to rent a whole truck, only for us. We were sitting in the back with 20 people. It was a little bit loud and bumpy, but also interesting, we had fresh windy air coming through, as the truck was open in the front and the back. First we took a bath in a natural volcanic hot mudpool and enjoyed the warm thermal water. Then we drove more inland and visited the Nukubolu hot pools, which were too hot to swim in, but good to dry the cava root on top of the steamy, over 100° celcius pool. Our last stop was the beautiful Vuadomu waterfall. The ice cold fresh water was a real contrast to the thermal pool we've been in before. And the kids enjoyed climbing and jumping off the surrounding rocks.

Incredible day in Tonga - swimming with humpback whales 😍

Exactly one week ago we made it to Tonga after 742

Exactly one week ago we made it to Tonga after 742 nm, 5 days and 8 hours. It was a pretty nice sailing, except for the last 24 hours. First we hit a fishing net in full power in the middle of the night, which suddenly slowed us down from 9 knots to 3 knots. After dropping the sails and drifting in the wrong direction, we checked with the underwater camera that there's no need to go night diving to set us free (somehow we got free, when we drifted in a different direction). After that the wind got a little bit strong (up to 38 knots). We had only a piece of sail out and still made 8-11 knots. And the last part was motoring against wind and waves to get into the inlet and we slowed down to 1,5 - 3 knots bashing against. When we got there in the evening, we had a warm welcoming from our friends on water dogs with delicious pizza and ice-cream cake. And we lost a day because Tonga is on the other side of the dateline. Unfortunately it was first Lauren's Birthday and then Anne's birthday. But we still celebrated it the next day with our friends in a restaurant, knowing full well that the birthday was already over in this time zone. So Anne is staying younger one more year ;) In the main village we did a short walk to the highest point of the Vava'u group (only 131m), Mount Talau and enjoyed a beautiful view over our anchorage and the fjords. After a few days of clouds, the sun came out and we had wonderful days exploring the Swallow's and Mariner's Caves. So far we like Tonga pretty much.

We spent wonderful 10 days in Suwarrow waiting for

We spent wonderful 10 days in Suwarrow waiting for the right wind to continue our journey towards Tonga. Suwarrow is the most southern Atoll of the northern Cooks islands. So we can say, we've been to the Cooks islands. There are worst places to wait for the right wind. We were the 60. boat to entering this atoll since June. There are two ranger, Harry and Teina who are doing the clearance papers and taking care of this national park with all his bird, turtles and other sea life. And they were quite busy when we were there. Up to 24 boats came to anchor here together at the same time. Harry said that there's supposed to be the maximum of 17 boats. But what can you do, when there's no wind and nobody wants to leave. When we left the 90 boat checked in. On the island you can do a nice flat 3 km Walk. You can also do good snorcling with Manta Rays, turtles and reef sharks. Teina showed us how to make a crown out of flowers and how to open a coconut in 30 seconds. By the way there are some huge coconut crabs on this island, too. We had 3 potlucks on the beach with other Sailors. And the two friendly ranger joined us. The kids played volleyball the whole day, although there were a lot of mosquitoes. We're leaving with a little sad eye, but now we can explore some new islands.

When we first arrived in Moorea after 108 nm and a

When we first arrived in Moorea after 108 nm and almost 24 hours from Huahine, more than a month ago, we were impressed by all the green mountains. And we could welcome our beloved family on board again. Hans brother, his wife and the two sweetest little boys ever 💕. We anchored on the middle finger, between Cook and Opunohu Bay and went by taxi to the Tiki-Zipline-Park to celebrate the birthday of our friend. Some of us walked back to the anchorage and had amazing views of the mountains and fruits. We shopped quite a bit in PaoPao, which was a 6 km Dinghy ride in a narrow but good marked Chanel. Being able to see the breathtaking view of our anchorage and the Opunohu Bay was because we did a short hike up to the magic mountain. On the next day we went snorcling with big Rays, which came so close that you could feed and pet them. It was such an incredible experience. We sailed 11 nm to the west side to Haapiti, which has the best surfspot of the island. The kids tried a few times to get the big waves. Another challenging hike we did started from Vaianae over 500m up on the mountain Mouaroa and the 3 Coconut Lookout which was preatty easy. There is no coconut tree anymore, but a breathing view in all directions. On the way back we got lost and had to bushwalk a pretty steep part until we got to the rim between 2 mountains and found the trail again to get down towards Haapiti. It was a big circle of 18 km. The last anchorage was in Vaiare, where the ferry stops. This easy walk across the island to PaoPao in the Cook's Bay showed us a beautiful view of Tahiti. From there we had to hitchhike back the 20 km on the road as it started to get dark already. Now, after 3,5 weeks in Tahiti, we chose an anchorage on the east side of the island where the beautiful public Temae beach is.

The most beautiful island we visited in the Societ

The most beautiful island we visited in the Societies so far was Huahine. The main village Fare is full of life. There is good provisioning in the big and well-stocked store. You have a few good and delicious food trucks and restaurants and even a nice bar with happy hour everyday. It's not easy to find a bar with good Cocktails in French Polynesia or it's far to expansive. To explore the island, we rented bikes to drive 14 km towards the airport and to the other side of the island to the village of Faie with a small stream that has some big, holy eals with blue eyes. On the way we visited a really nice and unique shell museum. The owner told us a lot about shells and showed us the poisonous ones. The venom is that strong, that they could kill 70 adults. But they're only dangerous, when you pick them up from the ground. On the way back some of us did a circle around the bigger island. It was not further than the way back, but much steeper. We had to bike up several hills up to 155 m high in less then 2 km. The view was amazing. We were back just 30 minutes after the others who took the easier way. After we sailed to the south island to the beautiful Avea Bay and did bush walking up a smaller hill. Then we said goodbye to our guests for a few days because they went to Tahiti by ferry.

What a wonderful time we had in Raiatea. The Tahit

What a wonderful time we had in Raiatea. The Tahitian language name Ra'iātea means bright or luminous sky. We visited the most important marae for the Polynesian culture. A marae is a sacred ceremonial site made from volcanic rock or corals. Thousands of years ago, the kings and priests of all Polynesian islands met in this Marae Taputapuatea to discuss social issues, to honor gods or to crown a new king. They also made human sacrifices and burials. This site is dedicated to Oro, the god of war, and was intended to unite the world of the living (Te Ao) with the world of ancestors and gods (Te Po). The participants came from far away in outrigger canoes and waited in front of the atoll for ceremonial entry through the sacred pass Te Ave Mo'a by means of smoke signals. A good way to explore a bit of Raiatea's inland is to take a dinghy or paddle board into the Faaroa River. After about 1 nm you'll reach a gorgeous botanical garden. And on the other side of the river is a big organic farm, where Andre shows you around and gives you lots of fruits. The wind in Raiatea was also perfect for kiting, which the kids just started to learn and made really good progress.

We spent about a week in Bora Bora. It is a very nice Island but in some places it's touristic and they wouldn't let boaties go ashore or visit some fancy resorts without paying a daily pass for about 100 $ per person (in addition to the salty prices for food or drinks). If you visit the remote areas it can be amazing. Being one of the more known islands in French Polynesia bora bora is a paradise and we even heard from it before we started our trip. They have mooring fields for the sailboats almost every where but also some sandy spots, where you are allowed to anchor for free. We were lucky and only had to pay $40 once.
We did 2 hikes on the main island. The first was on the north side of the island and started with a really steep road before climbing up a small rock wall to get to the easier road up on top of Mount Papoti in 250 m of hight. The second was pretty hard and started in the main village of Vaitape and led up to the top of the second highest Mount Pahia (662 m). You had to climb a lot, even with some ropes and it was pretty slippery, because of the rain 2 days ago. The views were incredible, even if you didn't reach the top.

Uturoa is the main village of Raiatea and with abo

Uturoa is the main village of Raiatea and with about 4.000 citizens the second largest city in French Polynesia. This is the place with the only secondary school outside of Tahiti, so all older students living in Tahaa, Maupiti, Bora-Bora and Huahine are educated here in a boarding school. Uturoa is very nice for provisioning and you can find 3 bigger supermarkets where you can almost get everything, even fresh fruits and vegetables although eggs are rarely stocked. You might find some in early mornings before 7 am. Raiatea is 175 square km wide and after Tahiti it is the second largest island of the Societies. It is pretty mountainous and wild inside. There are some very nice hiking trails and we started a hike to a 312m high mountain called Tapioi and despite the sign saying the trail was closed but our French not being well enough to be completely sure we decided to see how far we would get. We walked for a while and passed some houses before a man stopped us and explained to us that it is not possible to hike up that hill. We had walked quite far already and we wanted to see the nice view and after him telling us that it can be very dangerous to walk up there and us trying to have a conversation in broken French he agreed to bring us up to the top in his pick-up truck. The road to the top wasn't dangerous at all and the loop on the top neither in spite of the fact that maybe on a rainy day the trail could be slippery. We had an incredibly beautiful view of the sister island Tahaa, the atoll with the outer and inner reefs and the airport runway. Later we found out that four years ago a student fell 50m down the hill and because of that accident the trail was closed. Before the incident Tapioi was a popular view point for hikers. After hearing such a sad stories we have some good news. Hans's brother and his family are currently staying on our boat and they're planing to stay about 3 weeks.

Tahaa was our first island in the Societies. We ha

Tahaa was our first island in the Societies. We had to be there in time for a big birthday party on the island Ceran, right next to the pass. The Societies are a mix between the Atolls of the Tuamotus and the green mountainous Marquesa islands in the middle of the atolls. The reefs and passes are good for swimming, snorkeling, diving or kiting and surfing. Like in the Tuamotus the water is cristal clear (not quite as clear but close). And inside the atoll you can go hiking or biking to have some exercise and explore the islands. In Tahaa we did both. On one day we did a 13 km bush walk because the trail turned to be less prepared as further we went. It was our first bigger hike since January and it was a little bit adventurous, but we had so much fun. The next day we rented some ebikes to surround the whole island. We cycled almost 70 km mostly along the coast. There were just 4 hills with less than 100 m high, but they were quite steep, even with an ebike. On the west side of Tahaa is a beautiful Coral Garden for snorkeling. It's between Motu Tautau and Motu Maharare. First you walk on the island all the way to the other side to start almost before the outer reef. Than you drift snorkel to your Dinghy. You can see a lot of beautiful corals and funny fish there. And we even found Nemo. But be aware, as the corals sometimes stick out of the water and it's to flat to snorkel through. At some places it's more like a labyrinth and you have to find your way trough. But it's really worth it. On weekends they have a delicious food truck in Haamene, with very big plates of crispy chicken. After that we sailed to the main village of Raiatea, called Uturoa, for provisioning. It was pretty good stocked even with fresh food like tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and lots more. We are not used to that anymore.

Before we had to say goodbye to the Tuamotus, we sailed to the main atoll of Rangiroa, where we had a few days of bad weather with a lot of rain and pretty uncomfortable sea on the anchorage. That's why we couldn't really enjoy this atoll. We visited the two villages Tiputa and Avatoru, did some provisionings and saw the big Dolphins outside the Tiputa Pass jumping. They supposedly are there every day. But because of the weather, sadly we didn't have the chance to dive with them. This atoll was very green and lush growing with vegetables and fruits. It reminded us a little bit off the Marquesas without mountains. Then we went to our last atoll, Tikehau, where we spent a nice couple of days exploring the islands and swimming with the Manta Rays at the cleaning station. We were so lucky that they came back after a long period of heat. And then we were off to sail to the Societies, 210 nm (378 km). We had some nice spinnacker sailing and it took us 33 hours to get to the beautiful island of Tahaa.

Back in Fakarava south pass we did a few more drif

Back in Fakarava south pass we did a few more drift dives on the "Wall of Sharks". Yes, sometimes there is a wall of sharks. It depends on the strength of the tide and the moon. The sharks like the drifting and need to be always on the move for breathing. That's why you mostly find them in the passes. And sometimes there are so many that it looks like a wall when they swim along. We had some really good dives during the day with lots of reef sharks, big Napoleon Fish, some big eagle rays and lots of other fish. But the most spectacular dive was the night dive. When we did it, there was a nice calm incoming tide. We did it with some friends from another boat that we had just met there and who wouldn't have done it just by themselves, like us. So we were lucky to join each other. Their son was driving the dinghy, dropped us of on the outside of the pass and followed our torches all the time back into the atoll. In the beginning it was indeed a little scary, because there was just a single shark swimming up to the surface right towards us and came pretty close before we switched on the lights and scared him away. When we got down to the bottom there were hundreds of sharks swimming in the current. They came really close, but didn't touch us at all. They just swam past us and didn't care about us. You could even touch them. It was so amazing watching them drifting. Some of them tried to catch a fish, but they were all hiding behind the corrals. We just swam with them and almost forgot the time and the way out of the pass. In the end you have to do a right turn to get out of the pass and the current. But we missed it, in spite of having done it in daylight many times. It was too dark and we were too occupied with the sharks to pay attention. When we realized it, we were already in a very flat reef and the dinghy couldn't follow us anymore. So when we finished the dive we had to wait for the dinghy to go around the whole reef to get us back to the boats. It was so incredible and one of our best dives ever.

Tahanea was our favorite Atoll so far. It is, a re

Tahanea was our favorite Atoll so far. It is, a remote Atoll. Nobody lives on the islands, except of breading birds. The lagoon in the south east oft the atoll had the most beautiful pink sand beaches we have ever seen. The turquoise water was so clear and warm, that you could stay in there for hours. Most of the time we had good wind to do kiting and whing foiling. And we celebrated Jenny's 16. Birthday as a song contest on the beautiful beach with our friends. It was so much fun. Not many people visit this little peace of dream, because there is no shop or internet. If you love solitude and tranquility, Tahanea is the right place for you. After 3 weeks without provisioning, we had to return to Fakarava slowly. Our supplies were almost gone. Before that we did a few driftsnorklings in all 3 passes which are pretty close to each other and very beautiful. The sharks hadn't seen that many people before and were very curious and came pretty close.

In the beginning of March we changed atolls again.

In the beginning of March we changed atolls again. We sailed almost 50nm north-east to a smaller atoll called Raraka. We had to time our arrival well, because the entrance pass there is very narrow and tricky, and not many boats ever go there. That's why we had to leave Fakarava early in the morning to get there at 2pm for the slack tide. We made it right in time, but we were a little bit anxious before driving through the only pass. Jenny was in front for the eyeball navigation. The water was so clear that the pass looked even more shallow. We had a track of another boat who did the pass before. So we could just follow that. We were driving very carefully and it took us 30 minutes for the 2nm until the anchorage in front of the small village Motutapu. The people were very friendly and heartwarming welcoming us. They don't see very many people visiting their atoll. Two days we stayed near the village and then we sailed 4nm to the northwest corner of the atoll to protect us from the predicted heavy northwest winds. We choose this atoll because a week later there was a big storm coming from Tahiti predicted. If this storm had actually come, we would have gotten the impact in the Tuamotus with more than 40kn of winds from northwest. Luckily the storm was not as bad as predicted and we only had a few Squalls with wind over 30 knots. We stayed 1 week in the nice lagoon of Raraka and had two nice birthdays on the beach, did some lovely snorkeling, wakebording and wakefoiling. On one day we drove back with our dhingy to the village, because the locals had arranged a big Boule competition with BBQ for us and our friends .There were just 2 disadvantages of this atoll: Too many mosquitos on the beach even in the afternoon and no internet to get new weather forecasts or messages.
