Fakarava Part 5

Next night was pizza night at the local wood fired pizza place.

It took a bit of negotiating as the owner normally only opens for 6 people or more so the 5 of us said we would buy enough for 6. We were then informed that he had run out of onions and a few key ingredients which we said we would bring.

We went in early for a tour of the resort which is very eco conscious. The owner, incidentally, told us that he had personally built the entire thing over a period of 30 years.

And a final sunset on Fakarava – definitely near the top of our list.

If your out this way, pay a visit. The next day, we heard from a fellow yachtie that the owner was out of cheese so remember to bring your favorite pizza toppings with you just in case.

Next – the Marquesas.
