Goodnight Bahamas

31 May 2015 | Great Sale Cay Bahamas

Great Sale Cay is a jump off point with secure anchorages on all sides, pick a side depending on which way the wind is blowing. We decided on the less used northwest side which will shave off an hour or so off of our crossing back. Our plan is to head back going across the Matanilla Shoal straight to Port Canaveral and go through the locks to the ICW and on to Titusville.

The anchorage was shallow getting into with coral heads. I stood on the bow directing in close to get out of the swells. This being our last night in the Bahamas we went for our last snorkel and we were so disappointed. Visibility was poor and neither of us saw a single fish, conch or anything. Found this odd since we saw local boats making their way here to fish and saw some free divers on the north end as we came around. Even the bottom was void of any life.

Another boat pulls in late in the day and as the sunset they blew their conch shell to signal the end to another day. Something soothing, mystical and spiritual about it. The end to another day and the end of our time here in the Bahamas for now. Thankful for our time here and all our experiences.
