You push off from a small wooden dock and the lagoon opens like a sheet of glass that wants you to skim it. Mountains rise abruptly from the reef—jagged ridgelines cut against the sky—while the water beneath the jet ski shows bands of turquoise and deep cobalt. The guide runs a concise briefing, and within minutes you are slicing past coral bommies and skimming the flats toward two low-lying motus.
