Come experience a week of fun in the Exumas!!!

Alain, Jean and I, sailed out of Nassau, headed for the Exumas. A short 35 mile run... A brisk north-easter kept us at close-haul for the day.

Hyborne Cay was our first stop. We had to say hello to our old friends at the Marina. As always there hospitality was wonderful. After a great BBQ of local fresh Lobster and a good nights rest, we where ready to sail south.
Wardwickwell Marine park will be our next stop. Aquick four hours to the south. The Marine Park office is located here and it is run by Judy. The team that opperates the Park are all wonderful people. They will try to help you with any of your needs. You should plan on spending at least two days at the park ( moorings are $20.00 per night). Activities include Great snockling, diving on many spectacular reefs. Hiking the numerus trails and as always soaking up the sun, on there many pure white beaches.

The Park was created to offer many generations , a beautiful, protected, inviroment. Where all can expore, an aboundance of marine life and learn about the exciting history of the Cays.

It is our families, must stop. Please respect the Park for all of us!!!!

Next morning we sailed north, on a light broad-reach. Normans cay, the site of the cartel, drug lords, many years past. There is great diving and fishing at this Cay. It is outside of the park so all you Lobster hunters come prepared to HUNT>>>> There is a small Resto and Bar hinden just off the beach. A nice watering hole called Mcduffs Bar and Grill!!!

Tomorrow we are going back in time, to see the Iguanas at Alains Cay. Many times I have stopped to see and feed, grapes to these beasts and I am always amazed at there strange appearance.

Evening at Hybourne Marina. Tomorrow it is time to head home, 7:00am departure on Nassau. We had a wonderful week, but all good things come to an end. We say our good byes, we will be back soon.
