TINY but BEAUTIFUL ! Exploring TUVALU and a Manta encounter ! EP59 | Sailing the South Pacific

TINY BUT BEAUTIFUL ! Exploring Tuvalu and swimming with MANTA RAYS !

Having dropped the anchor in Funafuti, we complete our check in formalities and start to enjoy life in this tiny country. Only visited by an average of 7 cruising yachts a year , the locals are so friendly and make us very welcome.
We visit the local markets, have fun on the airport runway and swim with manta rays off the back of 'Double Trouble'.
We also speak to the Council Secretary about some of the serious environmental challenges that this low lying atoll is facing

👩‍❤️‍👨About us :
Hello and welcome to our channel! We are Jo and Rob and we are here to share our sailing adventures with you.
In 2016, inspired by the likes of ‘Delos’, ‘Sailing La Vagabonde’ and ‘Gone with The Wynns’, we sold up everything we owned and bought our 40ft, Fountaine Pajot ‘Lipari 41 Evo’ sailing catamaran ‘Double Trouble’. We had no sailing experience whatsoever, so the past few years have been a huge learning curve.
We thought it might be fun to document our travels for anyone thinking of following a similar lifestyle.
So far we have visited 7 different countries and sailed over 13,000 nautical miles.
We have had many unique experiences that would not have been possible in our prior life and we don’t regret a second.
We're both super keen on protecting our precious environment, so amongst other things, we both follow a plant based diet. You wont find any fishing footage on this channel!
