another magic video, great photos too, just wonderful, you have really showcased these islands and I can't wait to get there, love the name, yunno if your getting the bad boys sunburnt you can tuck them away.
Hello there, Have just found your incredible videos. I was anchored close to you a few times at the Keppels but never had the chance to say hello. Will have to get to lagoon at double island next year. Hope to see you on the water again some time. Graham, Trimaran Asteroid
Thanks Graham, we met a considerable number of incredible people this year and my apologies for not catching up with you. We will keep an eye out for you next season. All the very best Greg
Dear Nusa-crew, I watched your Solomons videos and I really liked what you did and your attitude. I am planning a trip to the Solomons and the Bismarck Archipelago next year if the Covid situation permits it. I would appreciate some more insights on what to bring for the locals, i.e. what is most needed or appreciated. How can I reach you? Thanks for an excellent series of videos, Richard
Thanks Richard, we traded predominantly clothing for fruit and vegetables. Spear gun rubber, dive fins and dive masks are in demand. We did get asked for soap and towels on occasions. We donated exercise books, pencils, soccer balls etc to the schools. We gave away reading glasses with very basic eye testing to older people we met in the villages. Wet and dry sandpaper was sought after in the villages that do carving. Small fishing hooks and sinkers are popular. The Solomons is an incredible place to cruise, it’s not always easy but if you get the opportunity to go you will love it. sailingnusa1@gmail.com
Thanks for watching Hayley, the caves are on the south east side of Great Keppel island and the south west side of Humpy island. It’s easier to access the caves on Great Keppel at low tide and preferably in northerly winds or light conditions. The caves on Humpy island are half submerged and only accessible by boat and then swimming into the cave. Hopefully this helps you enjoy your time in the Keppels as it is a phenomenal area.

Yeah mate the Keppels really are a special place and when you get the chance to cruise that area you will love it. Thanks for the tip on the sunburn.

Where are the sea caves exactly?
