Early breakfast at camp before a day of sailing round the Bay of Islands.

We set from Paihia to Stingray Cove, saw a couple of penguins on the way and lots of beautiful scenery, when we arrived at Stingray Cove, I was convinced by James and Shannon to join them in jumping off the boat for a swim to shore.....freezing!!

Once back in land, a hike up the hill warmed us up and gave us an amazing 360 view of the area.....turquoise blue sea, golden sands and rolling hills. After a bit of kayaking and lunch on the beach we sailed back.
