Despite the summer heat, we’re enjoying the trip north with all there is to see along the waterway. Leaving Cumberland Island we passed by Kings Bay Submarine Base and got to see one submarine on an outer dock.

Cumberland Island
Cumberland Island National Seashore remains a favorite anchorage and place to explore. It’s right above the Florida-Georgia border, and is a natural barrier island with 17 miles of pristine beach, dunes, and maritime forest. It is known for…
Northern Florida
North of St. Augustine there is a favorite anchorage in the salt marsh called Pine Island. I’ve always wanted to stay there and explore with my kayak – it’s a great birding area. So this time, we spent a day and I had a ball (despite temper…
Leaving Cocoa
We enjoyed our month-long stay in Cocoa and the time really flew by. We got our important repairs completed as well as a few other projects and chores. We never got the chance to tour the Kennedy Space Center this visit – by the time we got…

A Shark Adventure
We heard about another good area for diving on the ocean side just to the north of Warderick Wells, near Danger Cay. (What a great name!) There is a hidden mooring for a nice 45′ reef site, and we set out in the dinghy to make a dive. …
Warderick Wells Wonders
The headquarters of the Exuma Land and Sea Park is located on Warderick Wells Cay. It’s a good place to find some protection from frisky weather, and there is a lot to do there with numerous hiking trails, great snorkeling spots, and good dive si…
