We have been out snorkeling a few times. Mostly at reefs near the anchorage. The atoll is about 4 miles wide and we can see small motus with many or just a few palm trees across the atoll, and on the horizon. Close to us is Anchorage island. It offers the best anchoring protection from the SE Trade winds, is the closest to the pass in the reef and is also where Harry and John have their base. The island is about 400’ wide and a little less than a km long and part of the circular reef, and on the western end of the island where the reef continues around the atoll it is possible to walk the reef at low tide, on the lagoon side, for a couple of miles. The reef extends into the atoll a short way and is quite flat so it’s like walking along a wide circular roadway. On the inner side of this roadway the reef drops off in a small ledge ranging from 3 -12’ deep in places, and it is possible to snorkel along this ledge where there are many varied colours and shaped corals, as well as many multicolored reef fish, including parrot fish, about a foot long with blunt snouts and bodies of beautiful shades of blue and green.
