Top 5 snorkels

Hi Nancy, Just wondering if you have tried the dinghy thing. Henley Cay and some others were a lot of fun. The current will carry you and you get picked up. A cooler with lunch and you are all set. BTW I'm not associated with any outfit that rents them. Also agree w/ Choclate Hole recommendations ~ ...

jp -answer to one question

jp,
don't go to slim man - no need to, park right at Bougainville and walk down. We used them and the savings EVERY night vs paying was a real plus. You always have your own spot at no cost = no brainer.
Enjoy jp!

Bug's Vacation

Dear Bug, Nothing and I mean nothing(airplanes, bullets and other high speed projectiles included) and goes faster than a vacation. About a week before our trip at the end of March I had a dream that we had gone and all I remember was about two seconds on the beach. I awoke and dismissed it as silly...

Comment Fire Guy and Sandwich

Greetings All; We saw the "Caribbean Pyros" @ the beach bar w/ "Shoot for Tuesday". Kids 14,12,& 10 thought it was pretty neat, although he did drop the firestick twice in ankle deep water-relight required. We took our two and a nephew that night giving my brother and his wif...

Re Adivice for those young & in love...

Dear Linz02m, Advice, yes- I would humbly submit that it is paramount to stay out of the sun or at least ensure very good protection- you'll appreciate it later- believe me. Perhaps purchase a few nice jewelry items, ie earrings have them gift wrapped. Now when you are seated at a nice restaurant an...

3/25 - 4/1 Windy, whitecaps in the channel. Trunk had cloudy water 3/28. A lot of large (5'+) waves. Kids loved it. They closed moorings for the dinghys on several beaches- no fun for the people who had rented them that day (they weren't told by Noahs) and arrived at Trunk to be turned away. Same da...

jp's dilemma

JP First of all have a great trip and enjoy. Son is eighteen (18) years old and your concerned about leaving them alone for a few hours? I would think at this point that he should be able to handle it - if not when? Agree w/ others lay down some basic safety rules, relax and have a nice dinner. Suds

Question for melwill530

melwill,
That sounds interesting using baby powder. Can you describe a little more how this works? Do your feet need to be completely dry first?

I can imagine the dynamics of it. How did you discover this?

Hope to be trying it out soon.
