Day 6 - Mangrove Discover Center Kayak Trip

Snorkeling Day! Up & out early headed to 1000 Steps! Not many people there, so found a good parking spot. Down the stops (not 1,000) to the beach. Was a bit hard getting in. wore our reef shoes to the water. Luckily, Pam & Jim have reef socks, so we could hand off our shoes! Beautiful coral! Rod & I headed out south. Saw lots. Then, we went back to pick up Pam so Jim could go ashore. The 3 of us went north this time. Saw more neat things. Tube coral (actually sponges). Then back again. Had a snack, but back for a beer. We took our beers down to the water front. I rinsed off in the shower down there, then we sat in the sun. We were a bit chilled! Rod got into the water & swam quite a way with his goggles. Looking for critters…Then lunch & a rest. Next stop was Andrea II. Easy to find, close by, & easy entry. Less coral, more fish. Not too busy when we got there. Same game plan! Good beach! Jim saw an octopus! Back to shower & Happy Hour. Cheese, crackers, etc.
