ELATO
Position: 7° 29.672'N 146° 9.660'E
This place is a true gem with an appreciative and generous community. The island is beautiful, the water is clean and the insects are minimal. Elato has just over 100 inhabitants and is usually bypassed because most yachts stop at Lamotrek just 10 miles off. The chief is John, who doesn't speak much English, but the whole population is very welcoming.
The entrance to the lagoon is easily identifiable and there are buoys inside the lagoon marking two shallow spots. Anchorage is protected from the NE.
