Leaving the north end of Clark’s Court Bay we weren’t entirely sure which of the many surrounding anchorages we should head to. When we learned from Bees Knees that there was going to be a beach BBQ on nearby Hog Island where they were anchored our mind was made up.
We motored round to the anchorage using a buoyed dinghy channel. While coming round we saw Anne and Jim exploring the island. They gave us their ‘Happy Dance’ to greet us. It was fairly tight getting through the channel with the depth under 6ft towards the end of the channel but we made it without any scrapes. The anchorage was pretty packed but we found a spot.
We stayed on the boat for the afternoon to avoid the heat and went ashore around 3pm. The BBQ had already started and locals and cruisers were already there with music playing and the live band setting up. We stayed until after dark meeting a number of people who we are likely to see again throughout summer. This is what I always imagined a Caribbean beach bar to be and now, after six months, we have found one. The BBQ is held here every Sunday. We can certainly imagine returning here a number of times over summer.
