Mekiro West Side Snorkel
23° 10.5′ S · 134° 55.4′ W · approximate
Little sand 'finger' channels winding through vibrant, healthy coral on the western side of Mekiro islet.
Practical
approx: the pin is off Mekiro's west side. No published position. Sugar Shack spotted the site from the summit cross, dinghied around the islet and anchored the dinghy on a sandy spot. Swim the sand channels and do not touch the coral.
