Cave Cay to Little Farmers Cay and back to Cave Cay.

We decided to go to Little Farmers Cay because the sailing would be better tomorrow to go to Georgetown. There was supposed to be a place where you could snorkel and see sea turtles We didn’t see them in the bay so we went to the dinghy dock to check out the town (population 66). Then we saw the turtles.

We also met some nice sailors from Uruguay and Argentina and they had their daughter from Brazil. She loved the tortugas.

Later we motored back to Cave Cay and anchored near the sand bar we tried to find yesterday.

In search of the mile long sand bar.
What the sand bar is supposed to look like!

The low tide was not quite low enough to walk on the sand but we did get it to about our ankles. Found some lovely sand dollars and met some other sand bar enthusiasts from Canada. They are also heading to Georgetown tomorrow.

What it really looks like. That’s Rita in the background.

There are about 10 boats at anchor ready to head out the cut tomorrow morning. On to Georgetown.

From Black Point to Cave Cay

We left Black Point fairly early and hoped to get to Cave Cay to anchor early afternoon. The colors of the water still amaze me!

We dropped our anchor near Cave Cay and took the dinghy out to find this “mile long” sand bar I had seen online. Unfortunately, it was far too choppy and we both got soaked. A boat passing by stopped to make sure we were okay. They told us we were still pretty far away from it so we turned around and came back to the boat.

Later the wind really calmed down. Jeff put the drone up and got some great photos.
