Green Turtle Cay, White Sound Mangrove Anchorage, Abacos, Bahamas

 We started the day with much less drama than yesterday evening!  We took the dinghy into the marina for a walk.



Just like we remember it - well kept and busy.  More of a "resort" kind of feel, not an "out-islands" experience for sure.


Nice paved roadways, mostly used by golf carts.

Beautiful beach on the ocean side.


Most everything seems to be rebuilt since Hurricane Dorian...plus a lot of new construction.  The houses are a bit fancier here than we're used to!


On the protected side of the island, there is a beautiful little bay - Coco Beach.  There is a public dinghy dock where they apparently feed the rays and turtles.


Of course, the rays come right up to you expecting a handout - I didn't have anything but that didn't keep them from trying! 

 

Funky feeling when they brush against your ankles!


They even have a lovely bench for a little rest.


Almost low tide.

 

Just taking our time since the weather for a gulf stream crossing doesn't seem to be in the near future!

Going back to the boat, here is a photo showing the dredged rectangle - the boat yesterday was stuck on the left and side.

 

You can really see how "unforgiving" that rock is!!


 Back to Sojourn for a relaxing evening.
