The ‘dome ships’ (doumu-sen) on Sagamiko; a seafaring man would cringe at the name, as they are really just moored rafts with huts built on top. With an oil heater inside – where you can boil a kettle - and Western-style toilets without, they are very well-equipped for a relaxed day’s fishing. The manager ferries you across in a small panga and you are free to come and go, such as for lunch or shopping, with just a phone call.

For breakfast, I skewered a few of the fish and grilled them; they were quite good.
