To
enter the lagoon we crossed over the reef to the south of the village
at the narrowest point where we had 5m of crystal clear water.
Inside the lagoon we had simply to choose a spot away from bommies
and away from the sound of the island generator.

There
was a well organised welcoming ceremony for the rally boats; coconut
drinks, the drumming band and a demonstration of island handicrafts.
Dhiragu is different to many of the other islands we have visited
because it has a well developed infrastructure for tourism run by the
local people and a few expats. There are guests houses and dive
operators, restaurants and souvenir shops.
