2012-03-09 - to Great Guana Cay (Nippers) via Fowl Cay

Happy Birthday Kerry!!

We started this day early heading out of the mooring field towards Fowl Cay.  This is a Land and Sea Park that has the best snorkeling that I have seen.  Unfortunately, the waves have not settled down yet making heading to the reef very uncomfortable - so, we did not do it this time.  It is a beautiful spot still - reminding me a lot of the Exumas as it is just a rugged island, nothing on it, surrounded by crystal turquoise waters.  Kerry stayed with Dylan on the boat and I landed the rest of the crew for a brief exploration.  We may have to head

back another time to do the reef once things settle down more.  We pulled anchor and headed to Great Guana Cay.  Once at Great Guana Cay, we grabbed a mooring ball and then headed right towards Nippers Beach Bar and Grill.  Nippers is a must see here in the Abacos - at least once.  It has every pastel colour ever made into paint which gives it it's unique 'charm'.   We ended up staying the entire afternoon, enjoying their pools, fabulous beach and frozen drinks.
