it then runs north and south for the length of the
island with smooth water. About three quarters of
a mile N.W. of the south-west point, and half a mile
from the shore, lies a patch about 200 yards in extent,
on which there is only an occasional break: it is
therefore dangerous if approached from the south-
ward with the sun ahead; from its outer edge the
south-west point and coast of Paama bears S.E. S.,
and the north-west extreme of the island bearing N.
by E. clears it to the eastward. There is another
shoal nearer to the shore and about three quarters of
a mile to the northward of this patch, but the water
being smooth there was no break on it.

No other outlying dangers were observed till near
the north-west extreme, when a little to the south-
ward of this point, and close to the shore, there is a
small patch, and a short spit runs off the northern
point. The general character of the western coast is
successive beaches of rough coral, with considerable
cultivation on the lower slopes of the north-west
ranges. A village was observed about $1\frac{1}{2}$ mile south-
ward of the north-west point, and the whole coast is
evidently inhabited.
