Our Travels

_{For those who don’t know that one, it’s a children’s song that will totally get stuck in your head. Go ahead, Google it if you dare.}

As you’ve guessed, this post will feature some finned, toothy ocean creatures.

We were safely moored at Cambridge Cay shortly after 12. Opting not to waste a lovely afternoon on chores, we had a bite to eat, dropped the dinghies into the water, grabbed the snorkel gear and headed off to find the Coral Garden located on the southeastern side of the island.

It took a few attempts to find it. Charts reference the approximate location, but this particular Coral Garden is after all under the water and away from the shoreline. It’s not like there’s a sign poking up stating, “Coral Garden ↓.” Ha!

The reviews from years past mentioned a large field of Elkhorn Coral. We didn’t find that, but what we found was pretty.

---

We cruised around a bit and hit a beach for some combing but didn’t come up with anything. Not even something we wanted to take… but couldn’t because it’s the park, which is a “no take” zone! Ha! So, we headed home…

While on the swim platform rinsing the gear, we received some curious visitors. These guys are Bull Sharks.

Gear stowed, we showered and settled in for sunset watch, this time with sharks. Cool!

Been awhile since we put out our underwater light, this seemed like a perfect opportunity.

Much to our surprise, there weren’t many fish…. Gee, wonder why. About five Bull Sharks and a big ‘cuda.

Like we said, Mama Shark Shark Shark Shark. Papa Shark Shark Shark Shark. Pleasant dreams, everyone.
