We left Green Turtle and headed to Marsh Harbour, Abacos. Our journey around Whale Cay was perfect with a moderate swell of 4-5'. After we achored we took dinghy to land to greet our first Bahamas guest- Patti Miller! We had a wonderful time with Patti- snorkeling, exploring, cooking & eating, and talking!
Check out the photos of our adventures!
