After arriving we took a mooring in the outer harbor, only to be kicked off just before heading in to the port offices. Released the moorings then started hunting for a place to anchor in the 20-30 feet of water. Luckily, a nice gentleman in a catamaran spotted us and directed us to his friend's mooring. He would be out of town for a while and we were welcome to use it. We gratefully accepted his offer and went to check in. Nine Euros a night, which includes dinghy dock, showers, wifi, garbage and water. The dinghy dock is across from the grocery store and the port offices have everything one would need. Very friendly and worth it!. We repaid our friend with a bottle of wine and a lot of 'Merci"s for making our stay here pleasant.
Today the sun is shining and the wind and rain of Bertha are a thing of the past. Time to move on!
Food is definitely different
here! On the streets of St.
Martin they were selling
bunches of these berries
for $1. Didn't really know
what they were until we got to St. Barth.
Customs boat, leaving the fuel dock in Marigot. They boarded us earlier in the week; apparently remembering Toi Et Moi, crew waved and smiled to us |
Salt pond, beach and rocks along the eastern coastline |
Saline Beach |
Discovered these in St. Martin: Kenets. They are sweet and you can grill the seed. |
In St. Barth we discovered the kenet tree. If you look closely you can see the fruit. |
