Slideshow French Polynesia 2006
We’re getting prepped for our 100 mile night sail to Huahine, leaving at midnight and hopefully arriving about 10 a.m. We went scuba diving today with about eight black-tipped reef sharks following along (small ones – considered shy and perfectly safe). They were circling under our dinghy when we jumped in. Mike almost refused to go, although I had told him ahead of time that this particular dive would have a lot of them (up to 30, according to the guide books). The dive guides here in French Polynesia trail little bits of food behind them to make the fish friendly. It works!
