After we arrived at Hawksbill Cay we quickly put the motor back on the dinghy and went to find a few snorkeling spots. We were hoping we were close enough to slack tide. We had apparently missed it, though, because the current was quite strong and we couldn't snorkel much. We did walk on the beach and found a large area with mangroves that was like another world. This afternoon we waited for low tide and dinghied over to a huge sand bar just south of Hawksbill. The sand was so soft it was like walking in quicksand. It was so pretty to see the variations of color between the sand, shallow water and deeper water. Now we are at Shroud Cay, the northernmost cay in the Exuma Land and Sea Park. We plan to dinghy down a mangrove creek at high tide early tomorrow morning.
