Little Farmers Cay

A combination of getting antsy and needing to find some protection from westerlies brought us to Little Farmers Cay.  We anchored on the SE side of the island off of White Land Beach after a few tries.  The bottom is a combo of reefs (we don’t come close to those as we don’t want to damage them), grass, hard scour, and just a few spots of deep sand.  We were lucky and nailed one on the forth try!

Upon tying up our dinghy we met Dino, who was quick to tell us to make ourselves at home, that everyone there is family, and to wander at will because we couldn’t get lost.  We wandered and found lots of birds, chatted with the folks cleaning fish on the docks, and even got to cheer for the school’s all-sports day!  There are four restaurants and a few shops.  You can buy liquor from the Ocean Cabin and while there are dry stores available, we didn’t see fresh produce during our stay.  Brenda at the white deli/market with blue trim in Little Harbor made us two delicious loaves of bread!  We had great conch salad at Katey’s on the dock, enjoyed dinner at the Yacht Club, and watched the Super Bowl with other cruisers at Ocean Cabin.  We didn’t get out to Ty’s, but maybe we will be back!  This is another welcoming, lovely settlement in the Exuma Cays, and it worked well for the west wind!
