Snake Island

Last week we anchored off the smallest inhabited island we’ve ever seen: just a rock with a strip of beach, a few trees (full of noddie terns) and 11 people on it! The 6 boys were thrilled to have a sailboat anchored next to their home (the first one ever!) and kept us company. Usually they paddle to the neighbouring island for school, but at the moment they’re on holidays, just doing some fishing and going to the mainland to work in their garden.
The dad likes to tinker with electronics (we got to listen to radio PNG all day), so we left them some LED lights to run from the battery and a charger for their smartphone–after sharing some drone pics via bluetooth. A typical PNG mix of traditional lifestyle with modern influences ;-)
