Les Saints

Up early and pulled the anchor at 8;00A.M.. Headed for the Saints, Sharon’s favorite place in the Caribbean. Reasonably pleasant sail down the coast of Guadeloupe past Pigeon Island. Could not enter the Saints from the north due to easterly winds so had to continue south to the western entrance. Anchored west of Pain De Sucre off of the Le Boes Joli Hotel. Very soon saw a dolphin swimming off our bow and enjoyed a lazy afternoon swimming and snorkeling in the bay. Great snorkeling with magnificent colored fish everywhere.
Next morning headed into town around the point to connect with the internet and check out of Guadeloupe. Shopped about town a bit, had some lunch, and headed back to the boat. Our next port of call will be St. Lucia but we will stop overnight in Dominica and Martinique without going ashore. We will blog again after we arrive in St. Lucia where we will stay a couple of days.
