Erica and Warren sail their boat approximately 250 miles east from Viti Levu, Fiji, to the remote Lau Islands.▶ 2:58 The crew departs the south side of Viti Levu, navigating against prevailing trade winds by timing their departure to follow a cyclone, which provided favorable downwind conditions.▶ 2:51 During the two-day passage, the crew manages light and shifting winds, alternating between sailing with a large spinnaker and motoring when winds die.▶ 1:32 They approach the narrow pass at Fulanga on an incoming tide, noting the need for caution due to limited room for error.▶ 21:44 Upon entering the lagoon, they anchor in 10 feet of water near the village to prepare for the traditional *sevusevu* ceremony.▶ 24:49 The passage highlights the logistical challenge of reaching the Lau group, as most cruisers typically check into Fiji at the main island and must subsequently sail upwind to reach these remote eastern islands.▶ 3:33
