Asia's most beautiful beach

15 January 2010 | Andaman Islands
Dave and Judy
No adventure today: We are anchored off Havlock Island next to Asia's most beautiful beach and the 6th most beautiful beach in the world. (Time Mag 2007) White sand, jungle backdrop, beautiful trees with exotic birds fluttering around. It's now dark and we can hear the surf crashing on the beach. The swell has come up. Earlier we spent the afternoon swimming and reading on the beach....Had lunch in a little beach cafe of sorts. Glad we returned from the beach before the surf got too big to make it back. This morning I worked on the motors. Port engine had a fuel leak...Starboard engine had a restricted cooling water intake. It's something everyday. The temperature has dropped.... a little, it's cool at night. (70s)
