The Island of Niue

    Niue, also known as "The Rock", lies approximately 384 nm SW of Palmerston, a sail we made in about three days.  It was first sighted by Captain Cook in 1774.  Niue is reportedly the world's largest upraised coral atoll, and lies just east of the International Date Line.  It is an independent nation with free association with New Zealand.

 

 

  Niue's rugged coastline

 

 

 

    Niue has no surrounding lagoon and only a small skirt of limestone reef protecting the island.  Because of this, the rugged coastline provides many caves, chasms and swimming coves for exploring.   Because rain water filters through the coral and passes into the sea completely devoid of any sediment, the surrounding ocean is crystal clear with visibility possible to 200 feet!

   

      The Niue Yacht Club provides moorings for visiting yachts as there is no protected harbor for anchoring and any possible anchoring areas have deep coral fissures that can make retrieving an anchor very difficult, at best.  The day we arrived, we were lucky enough to get one of the last moorings available in Alofi Bay.

 

 

  As there is no harbor or beach landing, dinghies are lifted in and out of the water by a crane at the concrete wharf.  Timing is everything with an incoming surge -- as one person gets on the wharf to man the crane, and the other attaches the dinghy bridle to the hook and gives the signal to lift the dinghy out of the water.  The dinghy is then placed onto a trolley and wheeled to a free spot on the wharf.

    

 

Working the Crane

 

    The town of Alofi had most services available and we found the people very helpful and friendly.  We rented motorbikes for a few days to see as much of the island as possible. We found the island beautiful with many interesting places to explore.  In January of 2004, Cyclone Heta tore through the island with 300 km/hr winds that destroyed 90% of the buildings.  Reconstruction continues today...

   

     One particular hike we enjoyed was Togo, which we did with friends Cress and Irena of "Conversations". The trail goes through the bush and then descends through a mass of ragged coral pinnacles to a flat where a passage leads off the edge of a ravine down a steep ladder to a sandy patch where coconut trees rise way up.  From here, we hiked through the caves where the ocean comes pounding in among the rocks -- an incredible experience.

It is a combined drug with a fixed solution of dosages of active substances -lisinopril and amlodipine. The first one is a blocker of the enzyme peptidyl.
