Motoring round from Jolly Harbour to Five Islands Harbour |
Five Islands Harbour gets a pretty lukewarm write-up in our pilot book but our friends, Lars and Susanne on Sea Wind,had told us that it’s a great place to stop. We were intrigued and so headed out of the Jolly Harbour anchorage, picked our way carefully between 2 of the ‘5 islands’ and turned right into the bay. A passage of just 2 miles.
There were just a few yachts in the bay and none at the beach that we chose to anchor off, so we had it all to ourselves.
It was a peaceful spot to while away the day swimming, snorkelling and generally just ‘liming’. The sea around the islands and on the sandy beach was a lovely colour, the skies were clear enough to get a thumbs-up for sunbathing from Charlotte and we even saw a few lobsters when we snorkelled off the rocky headland. It was a lovely place to relax before an overnight passage.
