Great Guana Cay

2015 January 24
by Greg & Lyn

We left Green Turtle Cay at high tide to get across the entrance bar in Black Sound.  With the tide in our favor, we had 10 ft through the shallow spot.  We headed through the Whale Cut with calm seas, thankfully! Whale Cut is a short passage outside the protection of the Cays that can be very rough with breaking seas if there is any NE swell running.  We came back into the Sea of Abaco via Loggerhead Channel through a deep channel originally dredged for cruise ships, but abandoned in the 90s due to frequent rough seas in the Whale.  We sailed toward Marsh Harbour until we came to Great Guana Cay.  It was so beautiful we decided to stop in the calm anchorage of Fischers Bay for the night. We put the dinghy in the water and went ashore and walked to the beach on the other side of the island. Of course we had to stop at Grabba’s for conch fritters!  It was a beautiful day!!
