The provisioning in Somosomo is so-so; usually good fresh veg from roadside stalls, some hardware stores, an (unreliable) ATM and a pretty poor MH ‘supermarket’ a mile or so north of the village centre. The Indian ‘Sun City Supermarket’ at Matei has better offerings of branded foods as it caters to the needs of the small tourist resorts there. The Matei anchorage is usually well-sheltered from swell but is windy.
