After 18 days at Sea Spray Marina, Elbow Cay, we cast off the dock lines and headed for Little Harbour on Great Abaco Island. It was an easy journey of 19 miles with light SE winds and a slight chop. What a change after the turbulent winds of the past few weeks!
We attached to a mooring ball and headed in by dinghy to Little Harbour. It is the home of Pete’s Pub, Gallery and Foundry and is definitely worth a visit. Artists, Pete Johnston and Bob Zwickel, have an array of sculptures and paintings depicting sea life and nautical themes as well as a provocative sculpture piece, “Stages of Man”. After this dose of culture, we went back to the funky outdoor pub for some liquid refreshments and had to pick a t-shirt from these—“Rehab is For Quitters”, “The Elite Eat in Barefeet” or a pirate flag. My camera apparently jammed when I was taking a picture of the inside of Pete’s Pub but I would describe it as the Bahamian version of Tom’s Burned Down Café on Madeline Island.
It is a short walk down a winding road to a snorkel and shell beach or take the high road to the remains of an old lighthouse. Notice the sailboat through the window—we saw a steady procession of sailboats heading back to the Abacos from the Exumas as the ocean seas were calm for a crossing.
