The engine rumbles to life and the lagoon light changes with every turn as you climb onto a matte quad, dust lifting behind like a brief outline of your passage. Trails cut across the island’s volcanic shoulders; the guide points to Matira Point and the open lagoon beyond, where coral shelves glint beneath turquoise water that dares you to stop and stare.
