Baie des Tortues.
In this small bay the Araucaria, Cycas seemannii and Pandanus sp. are growing right by the sea. One of the big trees was measured 41m high, with a circumference at breast height of 1.91m. It is interesting to note that there were a lot of mature trees, but hardly small or medium sized trees. There were lots of seedlings (see below).
