Often we make plans and change them on the fly. Like the day we left George Town, headed for Black Point, and landed in Staniel Cay instead. And like now....we didn't plan on coming to Eleuthra but here we are.
The day before yesterday we made the short hop up to Cambridge Cay from Staniel Cay and we had another picture perfect day. We anchored in front of Bell Island in a designated anchorage. However, given that it's a private island, we chose to respect the owners privacy by staying well offshore. Oh my it was gorgeous though and made a fabulous backdrop to our already magnificent surroundings. It didn't matter that we could only look and not touch.
Once we knew our anchor was holding well we set out exploring the Cambridge Cay area by dinghy. That's when we found "The Aquarium" that we've heard so much about. Of course we had to snorkel it. The beach we discovered over that way was stunning as well. It was definitely a "wow" kinda day.
Yesterday the weather was just right to cross Exuma Sound over to Eleuthra so we changed our plans, again, and headed out at first light. It was an epic sail! I can tell you it just doesn't get much better. The wind and waves, and .... heck ... all the planets in the solar system were all lined up giving us superb sailing conditions. We anchored in Rock Sound around 4:00 pm.
Our loose plan is to stay here for a day or two and head up to Governor's Harbour when the conditions are right. From there to Spanish Wells but...
More about that next time.
Okay, I'm running out of words for ...beautiful... time to hit the dict'y. of synonyms. Aha! Prepossessing. These variety of beaches are absolutely prepossessing Janice! I'm enjoying seeing them so much. Thanks! N,x
