After weeks of stress welcome to paradise! (Derawan) | Sailing & Travel Ep 302

After weeks of stress during our long journey from Malaysia to Indonesia our first island destination was in sight. Just one more anchorage to go before we get there…

Salamat Datang! Welcome to the tropical islands of the Derawan archipelago, one of the least known and most remote places we have visited. It was time to start discovering some dream places again.
