05/26, 05/27/15 Crab Cay

Crab Cay sits just to the east of Nunjack Cay making for a beautiful inlet between the two.  Going through the inlet at higher tide, we found another great beach on Crab's backside which is protected by a sliver of another cay. In the shallows between the islands are some ochre colored starfish, what looked like baby sharks, turtles, and rays. We anchored off Crab, and snorkeled that shoreline and on an artificial reef created by some abandoned machinery in 5-9 feet of water. thousands of fish and a monster sized grouper swam around the wreck. There were waves of little fish, too, that were quite a sight. The cluster of hundreds of fish swam in flowing patterns in and around the openings of the machinery. Wow.
Loved it enough to stay an extra day. Very few boats around so we had remarkable privacy. Friends Ken and Kathy came by from Green Turtle Cay so we all had a nice evening with on their Cat. Nice boat.

Sunset at Crab. That looks to be a Kadey Krogen power vessel in the foreground.
