Re: Dingy Rental

Ditto chicogoans re: the center console from Calypso. We rented a center console for a half day from them a few years ago. Thinking this year, we need to do so again, and perhaps extend it for a full day. We, too, started at Waterlemon and worked our way back. DON'T FORGET YOUR FINS! Getting in and ...

Re: Those Bittersweet Last Days – Days Seven through Nine Tr

THANK YOU for sharing y'alls trip! What a wonderful time y'all had! Little Lameshur (or the other one) is now one of our faves, too, thanks to Sylvia and Ward. Love the steaks (and drinks and conch fritters and...) at Banana Deck, and Shipwreck is also one of our faves. On the ferry leaving, I don't...

Re: Michigan Girls trip report April 2014 - part four

Okay, we also have yet to snorkel Haulover North. Maybe this year! Angel's Rest looks like a fun detour! Too bad about Shipwreck. It's one of our favorites. Their specials are usually fantastic! And their peanut butter pie is the BEST! But you're right - those drinks!!! So, so good! Thanks for shari...

Re: Michigan Girls trip report April 2014 - part two

We also love the conch fritters at Aqua Bistro. Actually, everything we've had there has been FANTASTIC! We discovered Lameshur last trip with Awardb (Ward) and Sylvia. EXCELLENT snorkeling!!! We'll be back for sure! So how long was the Reef Bay Hike? How many hours? And would you recommend it? Real...
