We left Little Harbour first thing in the morning so we could be at anchor before work. A light rain fell as we prepared to go, but it cleared out by the time we departed. It was an absolute flat calm morning, and it was the first time we weren’t getting rocked and rolled by […]
Not quite at the end of Great Abaco, but in a spot that feels like the edge of the world, sits Little Harbour. With a challenging, shallow entrance and one bar/restaurant, many cruisers avoid it, but I consider this place not to be missed. We wanted to make sure we entered on a rising tide, […]
I got my toes in the water, ass in the sandNot a worry in the world, cold beer in my handLife is good today, life is good today – Toes, Zac Brown Band Picture the perfect beach. Do you see palm trees? Crystal blue water? White sand – maybe a crescent beach that emerges at […]
It’s always hard leaving a place once you fall in love with it, but at the same time, it feels good to be on the move again. We took the morning to provision and load up on fuel and water and take a final walk on the beach before saying goodbye to Hope Town. Our […]
I was so excited to get to Hope Town. From everything I heard, it was going to be a cool little stop, and I wasn’t disappointed. Much of Hope Town was devastated during Dorian, but I found it interesting that here, my first impressions were those of all the rebuilding and growth. The streets in […]
Hey Hope Town! Throw me a rope downInto a bottle of Firefly rum and let me swim aroundWhere the lowdown is to hurry up and slow downOh, oh, oh, oh Hope Town Hope Town – Songwriters in Paradise We didn’t know it at the time, but we happened to pick the week that Songwriters in […]
It was incredibly bittersweet to leave Green Turtle after making it our home for over a month. We even had a dog friend who adopted us and joined us for our morning walks at Gillam Bay. We started to see the same people over and over, and we started to get to know some of […]
This past weekend was too windy to go anywhere, so we found ourselves with yet another lazy weekend. Saturday was so windy, we barely left the boat even though we were on the dock – we were getting blown off the dock so hard it was tough to get the boat in close enough to […]
We’ve been on Green Turtle Cay for almost a month now, and it’s almost time to move on (we were supposed to leave this weekend but big winds will keep us here a little longer). It hasn’t taken me long at all to fall in love with this little island. The people here are so […]
So far, our favorite spot in the Abacos is Manjack Cay, which is only three miles from Green Turtle. We’ve visited twice – the first time, we had hoped to spend the night, but a storm was supposed to blow through, and at the last minute we thought better of staying. There’s a really cool […]
