We are back! Last year we got stuck on the boat in northern Eleuthera due to COVID so we are giving it another go this year. After a rolly night at Little San Salvador Island (Half Moon Bay to the cruise ships) we had a spectacular sail to Rock Sound. We only spent a few nights here, but got a good haul of groceries and revisited Cathedral Cave, a favorite spot from last year.
From there we had another great day of sailing up to South Palmetto Point. This was again a peaceful stop with good holding...we ended up being all alone there. While we were determined to have pizza at Mate & Jenny's again, this year we really wanted to check out Eleuthera Island Farm. We accessed shore via an abandoned marina and walked to the farm where we got a fantastic haul of veggies, fresh bread, and kimchi! We also had a rain shower move through that was substantial enough to allow me to scrub the deck really quickly...aaaahhhhh!
With winds shifting to more southerly we moved back south a few miles to Ten Bay for tonight. Once we edged in close to the beach we found good sand and are sharing the anchorage with two other boats. I did get a little jelly sting while I was cleaning the waterline, but a stunning sunset and sundowners have made it all better! G'night, sailors!
