BOUNTY ISLAND


Bounty island, "islet" more descriptive, is a small backpacker's locale located about 5 miles offshore of mainland FIJI. It is a short, easy trip from Vuda Marina.


I went there on my way out to the Yasawa Islands and wanted to test out the recent repairs before I ventured too far off shore.


The picture is the kind you see in the travel brochures.


The anchorage is an open roadstead and quite uncomfortable. The weather was so bad that I never launched my dinghy to go ashore.
