Manjack, Green Turtle and Treasure Cays

March 17th- Manjack Cay, met couples from 2 neighboring boats ashore for a tour of the Island where we were welcomed by the owners and spent the morning hiking the extensive trails and the beautiful beach. headed to Green turtle in the afternoon as another front is expected. Arriving in Black sound all the moorings were taken and anchoring isn't advised due to poor holding. We able to get a space on the dock at Donnies for the price of mooring.

Thurs & Fri, March 18,19- Green Turtle, Spent days biking about and enjoying the miles of deserted beaches.

Sat & Sun- beautiful day so we headed back to Manjack, Spent lazy day on deserted beach, saw 3 sea turtles while dingying about, on Sun we took a long walk on the beach before heading back to Green Turtle and our dock at Donnies.

Mon & Tues- rain all day with another passing front, weather cleared Tues and we enjoyed a BBQ put on by Donnie that evening. I had been working on a conk horn and we had a great time learning how to blow it at sunset.

Wed- Beautiful day with lite winds. We motor sailed south thru Whale Cay Passage in long easy swells. This short detour in the open ocean around the shallow Dont Rock area can be treacherous in any seas, so we were waiting for just this type of day. Anchored in the protected Treasure Cay harbor then enjoyed a stroll on yet another gorgeous beach.
