Up early determined to face the wind and waves and get to Volcano. Actually neither were bad but we did have several extreme downpours of rain – drops making lovely patterns on the sea. Early evening we arrived into the anchorage. Volcano is a unique island. Its most memorable feature is its pervasive smell of sulfur and sulphur dioxide. It has a large crater puffing out gases, several odorous mud baths and many above and below sea fumaroles causing hot springs. After several attempts we managed to get the anchor down satisfactorily – the bottom was very uneven and rocky in places. Whilst anchoring we were plagued by what seemed to be mutant mosquitoes that had vicious bites - I think they must breed in the sulphurous vents.
