Incoming

Bom Bom Islet, Principe

Here I’m standing on an outcrop high and dry from the incoming tidal waves that were forced through a hole in the volcanic rock, with great views of the low hanging sun and the Atlantic ocean.

I encountered quite a few of these cracks and holes in the tidal zone on Principe, but they are only fun during a narrow tidal window when the waves have maximum impact through the hole. That’s when they slam onto the rocks and through the hole with a loud boom! In fact the first one I found by sound and not by sight! I heard it through the dense forest and had to investigate, and actually first stopped to just listen to it in the forest. Simply savoring the rhythm of the ocean.

Just listening in I could gauge the seemingly irregular rhythm of the outgoing or incoming tide – several impacts with a rather lax punch, then every now and then a punch that made the ground and air shake!

Each location with its own unique series of sounds.

As I stood here enjoying the sounds and sights of my last evening on Principe the time and tide caught up with me and eventually one huge wave managed to push its way so high that I was completely drenched in a tropical warm shower!

A warm and wet embrace!

Bom Bom sunset

Bom Bom Islet, Principe

What a beautiful end to my wonderful stay on Principe! This was my last day, and thus chance of a sunset. Being in the rainy season a sunset is very uncertain all the way up to the time of the sunset as the cloud cover is ever changing and can switch from sunny to downpour in minutes.
