Four Friends |
Towards the end of our visit
Four Friends, a charter schooner based in Singapore, arrived with fourteen 17-year old students, all girls except for one, from the Arts School in Singapore together with teachers and kayak instructors.

Pinnacle Rock |
We were fortunate to be invited to join them in scaling what the skipper of
Four Friends calls Pinnacle Rock, a small , 67 metres high, island at the NW of the group. The top part of this involved a traverse up a fissure in the rock, for which ropes were laid. Richard opted to miss out this bit! Susan sat up top and leisurely watched a shoal of fish meander by.

It is also possible to get to the top of a rocky outcrop on the main island for a good view of the main lagoon. The path starts between two palm trees at the western end of the beach.
