We arrived Friday morning after a wonderful 28 hours sail, sun rising over the incredible entrance to Bay of Islands, NFLD and greeted by large fin whale and her calf…here’s some first impressions. So incredibly different to Cote Nord, only 175 miles away!



Excellent! Living up to its name and reputation. Love the water colours …you did these underway? xoxo
These were done from shore, up a hill from where the boat was moored. It was too enthralling coming in to stop and paint…and a bit tired after 28 hrs non-stop. We slept the first afternoon we were in the anchorage.
Thanks Di…we’ll be in touch while we’re here at the Bay of Islands Yacht Club xoxoxo
sounds like an incredible experience coming into harbour with the sun rising accompanied by a whale and calf. the pictures are wonderful. xoxo
