Walk down to the beach. Take a swim or set under a palm tree. Walk threw the palm orchards to town, order a drink and set down at the open card game.
Talk, go out on the balconey set up the telescope and look at the boats in the bay, or binoculars and watch the beach. Grab the throw net and try to net a fish. Work on the boat some, work in the garden, feed the livestock.
If good weather call a friend and plan a night out fishing. Then go to bed to rest up for a night out on the reef. Sure there is something to do.
