More lava fields that we drove by. I took the rest of the day easy, and had cocktails at a bar a short walk away on the beach. There was also some rain, a double rainbow, and a golden sunset that day.

There were a group of surfers here, and the main break looked pretty clean. I don't think I'm good enough for reef surfing, though. The snorkelling here was pretty good, but very shallow with the tide conditions.

Went to Aganoa for lunch. They sold us beer on a Sunday! Relaxed here for a while, it was a pretty nice area.

Got a quick photo with the blowhole, although not very close to it :/

This seems to be the main blowhole, with locals throwing in coconuts for the tourists, then asking for money. Definitely the strongest blowhole I've seen!

The landscape around the blowholes. Lots of relatively recent lava flows.

The eruptions were surprisingly difficult to catch in a photo, but a video fared a bit better.
