Day 25 -29, Pipe Cay and Compass Cay - after experiencing lots of rollers from the surge at our anchorage at BlackPoint, we searched long and hard to find some peace and calm water. We did, just outside the entrance to Compass Cay marina on the north end of Pipe Cay. It's also the first time we put out a stern anchor. We did that because it was a small area tucked in against rocks on the back side of the island, and sand bars on the other side. It worked out great and we had a beautiful tide rush in and out everyday. It was also a central spot to get to lots of things. So, each day we jumped in the dink and went exploring...lots of snorkeling, some boat chores, beautiful wildlife - and Outward Bound!

| Rachel's bath - it's a tidal pool area where the water, at high tide, splashes up from the ocean - fun and beautiful. |
