It's time to leave the reefs, not before anchoring in WAILILAGA, the only atol in FIJI; an easy pass, but a secure - but not confortable-anchorage. Beautifull paths cross the main island. Some diving boats sometimes stop on this island wich belong to an american couple. Like many tropical places, some empty and decaying bungalows show that between the dream is sometimes far from the reality. at least, a fijian family is there to take care about this nice place.   









Unlike main island, water clarity give easy pass and mooring to atoll WALILAGA

These paws are not from nesting turtles...

...but from the tractor of island keeper as this island is private


Former diving master, today in family taking care of this american own island, he knows what is a pacific welcome
Walking in the shade through the tiny atoll...


in nice company of endemic species...

...but also of universal inhabitant...numerous and without any complex
Atoll give good opportunity to move our legs between the 2 islets



Decaying bungalows from a seek dream...

...but very healthy boobies coloniy on the small islet


The lagoon offer nice snorkling including turtles... 

...but depite a lot of research not much at low tide.
