It's been hot each day, so getting off the boat and getting wet is nice. I returned to the eastern shore of Charleston Bay, this time jumping off the boat and swimming towards the rocky shore. For the most part, it's all seagrass and sand until you're within 100-150 yards from shore, where gorgonians, rocks, and coral begin to rise from the ocean floor to the shoreline. I also found a large section of wreck between the moorings, and the one mooring I checked is one I would recommend no one use!

Today I tried a new snorkel spot on the eastern shoreline of Charleston Bay in Canouan, St. Vincent and Grenadines. The majority of the shoreline is rocks covered with thick algae, but tall gorgonians, encrusting, brain and finger corals, as well as a variety of sponges, can be found scattered throughout your snorkel. Depths ranged from 1 to 15 feet. Enjoyed seeing a nice variety of species and some great fish cleaning stations. Worthwhile to snorkel here!

Cornis at Liege Designs has set up a beautiful book exchange at her shop. If you have any books, bring them by!

Just arrived in Canouan after a 20 mile sail south from Bequia. Beautiful waters and a great sail down. The One Fest festival is ongoing this weekend so have a feeling that it will be a “loud” weekend.

A pub crawl starts at 1pm. Our Manta friends are attending. Not really our thing so we’ll take a walk. Looking forward to snorkeling around the rocks in front of us tomorrow.
