Beveridge reef has to be one of the more unusual stops you can make on a voyage across the Pacific. Basically it's a ring of reef 5 miles long with perfect white sand in the middle, there's no land and the closest habitation is Niue 150 miles away. You are literally anchored in the middle of the ocean with only whales and sharks for company. Luckily for us we had a good friends on Boag to share this week with, the first few days were amazing snorkeling and whale watching, after about 3 days we started to get bored so organised some sweet 'ninja' game challenges between our two boats, after day 4 the weather turned and we were holed up on our boats, rocking around like being in a washing machine, waiting for our weather window to sail to Niue - we now truly understand the meaning of cabin fever!!! When all's said and done Beveridge reef was amazing but 3 days is by far long enough to be anchored in the middle of the ocean! We are the Robbins family sailing on our boat named Nikau. We are a family of 5. Our 3 kids are doing NZ correspondence school on board. They are growing to love it! What's not to love about 3 hours of school a day and then a different playground for the afternoon every day! We've traveled from New Zealand to Sardinia in Italy to pick up our boat and we plan over a few seasons to sail her back to New Zealand. We hope you enjoy following us on our adventures! We would love to hear from you. Especially if you are interested in doing something crazy like we are! Maybe we can help answer some questions you have? Thanks and enjoy.
