North Wind

Debbie had various meetings and updates going on, however called a holt at 4:00pm.  We walked to a cove at the Jawbone Sanctuary.  The locals have been doing this for years as you can see small sandy beaches and alcoves dotted all over the place. It is also a rocky section but I notice there are no waves despite a warm northerly wind.  I got out the new snorkel gear which is the Tahwahli brand. These seem to have a better way to get the flippers on your feet.  We timed the swim for almost high tide.  I have noticed previously that the whole area is a sand basin at low tide. The new gear works well. I only swam around for 10 minutes or so. There were other snorkellers so we can get in each others way. They saw a ray further over but I will save that for another time.  The water was clear but the lower Sun seemed to be glaring.  The main thing I saw was scuttling crabs, so watch where you put your toes.
