Full Moon Bay

Full Moon Bay is a secluded cove in the East Lake, located just south of Ba Sing Se. During the Hundred Year War, it was the location of a hidden ferry station that refugees from all over the southern portion of the Earth Kingdom came to on their way to Ba Sing Se.
== History ==
After Suki and several of the Kyoshi Warriors left their homeland to help others who were suffering due to the war, they started working as ferry guards at Full Moon Bay. During her time working at the port, she encountered her childhood best friend, Mingxia, who had left Kyoshi Island a few years before Suki. Mingxia introduced Suki to her friends, Dandan, Fenfang, and Peng, as well as her girlfriend, Meilin. Mingxia explained that traveling the Earth Kingdom was difficult due to the war, and that they were traveling to Ba Sing Se as refugees. Just before Mingxia was due to board the ferry, Suki grabbed her arm and embraced her, thankful to see her old friend for the first time in years.
Iroh and Zuko, carrying false passports, ventured to Full Moon Bay and were able to acquire tickets for the ferry. Aang and his friends, however, had a more difficult time; Aang tried to gain access by informing the passport attendant that he was the Avatar, but she dismissed him as she had seen "fifty Avatars a day". The situation was quickly remedied by Toph, who presented her passport, which dazzled the attendant to the point of giving the whole group tickets.
As the team was preparing to leave, Suki encountered them and reintroduced herself, explaining how she and the Kyoshi Warriors were now working as ferry guards. However, while the group caught up, they learned that Than, his sister, and Ying, who had all traveled with Team Avatar to the bay, had been robbed. After the attendant denied them replacement tickets, Aang decided that he would lead the entire group through the Serpent's Pass, and they left shortly thereafter, with Suki joining them.
