Our first night at Suwarrow was celebrated by a potluck BBQ with
fresh coconut crab, poisson cru, and blackfin tuna. Yum!

Here's Robert (from Evelyn Roberts), Barb and I heading back from
checking out the underwater sea life.

We couldn't identify this fish...
|
A tired moray eel.
|
The Tridacna clams' brilliant colours come from symbiotic algae
growing in their mantles. We've seen green, blue, purple and orange
ones.
|
This unique and colourful fish was spotted floating over the reef
several hours each day.
|
A shy Regal Angelfish
|
There were many sharks both inside and outside the lagoon, but
they rarely approached closer than 15 m. Here's a Blacktip.
|
The Parrotfish's powerful beak crunches coral fragments and the
algae within is digested.
|
Relaxing at the 'yacht club' facilities, with Wolfgang and Graham.
|
This Star Puffer was very curious, and circled us several times.

Sunset in paradise.
