We reached the farthest point south for this cruise at Black Point Settlement – a very small town just south of Staniel Cay.  The people are friendly and nice, and it is the best place to get coconut bread (we think).  We dinghied to shore an…

The colors of the water never cease to amaze us – they almost look fake with such vivid shades of turquoise, cobalt where the water is deep, and almost white where the water is shallow over the sandy bottom.  No matter how much I try, photographs …
