Life After Landfall | Exploring the Marquesas Following Our Pacific Crossing
After crossing more than 3,000 miles of Pacific Ocean, we finally had a chance to slow down and enjoy life in the Marquesas Islands.
But life after landfall isn't just tropical anchorages and waterfalls. There were still boat projects to finish, new places to explore, and old friends to reunite with.
Join us as we settle into life in French Polynesia, repair our Code 55 sail, explore Taiohae Bay, sail to the incredible Daniels Bay, hike to Vaipo Waterfall, and spend time with friends while the kids enjoy everything the Marquesas has to offer.
Sometimes the best part of crossing an ocean isn't the crossing itself... it's what happens after you arrive.
