The coastline from Lombok to Flores is dotted with lots of stunning emerald green islands ringed by white and, in some places, red sand beaches. Fish and dolphins jump from the sea as the sun sets (no photos I was too gobsmacked to reach for the camera) but as you can see the sunrise was blood red (although I cannot take credit for the photo as I was asleep at the time having spent the night in fear that we were going to sink as we ploughed through the mother of all storms).
Finally a sample of the catch to be had from Flores Sea ... completely illegal apparently but the crew didn't tell us that until it was dead. They said it was a snapper of some kind but I think that may have been the only type of fish they knew the word for in English as it doesn't look like any of the other snappers I've seen but then what do I know!
