Ep 139: The Shallow & Sketchy Exit from Fakarava

We’re deep in the wild beauty of Fakarava’s South Pass, one of the most breathtaking dive sites in the Tuamotus. Sharks circle, spotted eagle rays glide beneath us, and the snorkeling is absolutely unreal. But the adventure doesn’t stop underwater—Connor discovers a possible reason why our boat has been mysteriously taking on water. 😬

The real challenge? Trying to find a safe route out of this shallow atoll. With no clear path through the coral, Connor gets creative—MacGyver-style—rigging up a camera and depth sounder system to scout a way forward. It’s nerve-wracking, borderline insane, and we’re still not sure we’ll make it.

Join us as we face one of the sketchiest exits of our sailing journey yet. Will we make it through without hitting bottom? Or are we pushing our luck in paradise? Don’t miss this heart-pounding passage as we finally set sail for Tahiti. 🌴⚓

Enjoy 😊
