Ilot Casy and Baie de la Somme

You get a good view of Goro's hydrometallurgical plant from the top of Ilot Casy, but if you look in the opposite direction you find glorious white sand beaches and tall New Caledonian pine trees.  Glorious sunrise in Baie de la Somme, where we tucked in for 24 hours while a strong NW change went through, home to lots of catamarans which are used for whale watching trips at this time of year. 

A band of torrential rain arrived just as the shore party was heading back to the boat after a walk ashore to Prony villages…..
