Scott looking fabulous relaxes with a sundowner. We stayed a week at this beautiful spot. It got quite windy but we found good protection from the east behind Long Caye. |
Hopefully you'll get an idea how beautiful the water is out in this pristine paradise - but the reality if much better. That's our buddy boat Emerald Seas anchored near us. |
Scott went diving every morning with Jim & Renate - they have a compressor on board to fill all the tanks. |
"Million Dollar Beach" on Long Caye |
An informal dinghy raftup with two of the other boats at anchor with us. |
Renate tries hard to get the internet working at Hurricane Diving Resort on Long Caye. It rarely worked. |
Several groups of fisherman plied their trade around the Reef. We enjoyed meeting them |
Another beautiful sunset after a "green flash". |
We traveled with 3 boats this trip - Emerald Seas, Cordelia and ourselves. |
These beautiful trails wander all over the island - signposts show the way. |
This is the view over the treetops from the viewing platform Four thousand boobys roost here and this is nesting season. In addition there is a rookery of magnificent frigate birds. |
Here's a baby booby - a fluffy white ball and not at all nervous. |
And here's an adult. |
Sunset beach looks out over the interior lagoon towards Long Caye. |
The boobys prefer these Orange Flowered Ziricote Trees for their nest. Good taste! |

Two of the fisherman came over to sell us fish and stayed for lunch and a beer. It was a nice change from their rather lonely and certainly long days fishing. |
