It was past noon when the captain, glad for the first sunbeams of the day, came to help us put on our life jackets. We faced very soft waves for a quarter of an hour before setting foot on land and discover paradise as presented in movies and in the most eye-catching books. Bananier, a secluded beach accessible by sea, is  an extravagance of fine sand placed in a lush vegetation. There's a village around and children go to school by boat and they haven't learned how to eat trees. They told us a bunch of stories about the mistresses of the water, and they also said they are protected from everything except from hunger and storms.
