Fura.
16 August – 28 August. The water clears again. Snorkel and sandbank sessions come back.
Calmer seas; the lagoon settles. Maldivian fishermen and farmers have planned by Fura for centuries; the almanac says the same thing every year, and it is right more often than the forecast.
For photographs: the water clears again. Snorkel and sandbank sessions come back. Hulhangu is quieter on the islands and the sunsets are the best of the year; if it rains, we wait twenty minutes.
