The Maskelynes

Introducing The Maskelynes

The road from Lamap ends at a sandy beach, Point Doucere, the major landing (strip of sand actually) for canoes and speedboats going out to the Maskelynes. It’s a 20-minute walk from the airport through coconut plantations.

The Maskelynes are just gorgeous. Most have coral reefs with excellent diving and snorkelling, but be very careful of strong currents between the islands. Some of the islands are very rugged. Others have patches of mangrove-lined coast, or sandy beaches.
