We left Warderick Wells on Sunday to sail further south, choosing to go the "inside" route via the shallower, but calmer, Exuma Bank waters. We anchored at O'Briens Cay near the Sea Aquarium snorkeling spot and Little Halls Cay (aka Johnny Depp's private island--no sign of Johnny yet.). Sea Aquarium is aptly named. Snorkeling there really does seem like being inside a tropical fish aquarium. Thousands of colorful fish all around. The Sargent Major fish (thank you Stan and Essie for the card identifying fish in the Bahamas) are so tame they swam right up to us. We suspect they must get fed, even though it is against park rules. Sea Aquarium is located next to a small island. The current flows one way around one end of the island and the other way around the other end. George discovered that the hard way when he nearly got swept out to sea! After that we made sure to stay near the middle of the island where the current wasn't as strong.
