Wednesday 14 September First dive in Vanuatu

It rained all day yesterday and we got wet whatever we did so today we decided to get wet in the proper way by going for a dive. It was also the start of our journey north through the islands on our way to the island of Espiritu Santo home of the biggest diveable wreck in the world, the SS President Coolidge.
Ten miles out from Port Vila we found a sheltered spot under the cliffs and within site of St Pauls Rock which is a pinnacle in the middle of a channel. Oso Blanco was with us once more as we dinghied out to the mooring ball. It was a gre
at dive – the clarity was superb, like swimming in a gin and tonic, the fish were plentiful and friendly due to being fed by dive guides, no current and just big enough to keep us amused for an hour.
For our night anchorage we moved up to the reportedly more protected Ei Creek except we rolled in the slow swell all night.
