Our first marina in the Bahamas was at Lucaya. They had beautiful grounds and a restaurant on site.

Our overnight passage from West Palm to West End Grand Bahama was uneventful – luckily! Leaving around 2:00 am, we had a full moon, calm seas and an easy sail to the Bahamas. Check in was also painless and we found a nice anchorage closeby.
We left Topping, Virginia from the Region Point Marina. Set sail early December on the ICW. Stopped in Oriental North Carolina, one of our favorite marinas.
One of our next stops on the ICW was St. Augustine. Enjoying the beautiful sunset at the Bridge of Lions.
Then on to Vero Beach where we stayed for about three weeks. Often referred to as Velcro Beach, this is where many sailors get ready for the crossing the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas.
