We made it!!


We are finally in the Exumas, in Allan Cay where almost exactly seven years ago we sailed in with Zingaro in its maiden voyage. And it's everything we remembered and more. The abacos are not for sailboats, too shallow. If you don't have a boat and want to spend a week in the Bahamas, don't choose Nassau, go to Marsh Harbor find a place in any of the islands and go island hopping on the ferries. Harbour Island in the Eleutheras was really special but again you reach it by ferry because it is surrounded by a reef called the devil's backbone.
The exumas on the other hand you can only really see if you come in a boat. The water is crystal clear, the snorkelling exceptional. But of course no internet (except for my blackberry) or hardly anything else. The new guidebooks say things have improved in the last eight years. But ypu know guidebooks! See to believe.
