Docking for Dollars at Green Turtle


From Allen's Pensacola we made a short sail south to Green Turtle Cay, one of our favorite all weather anchorages. We tied up for five days at the Bluff House Mariana and took advantage of their off season promotion. Whatever you spend for dockage you get back if you buy stuff at the resort. So we had several tasty meals at the resort bistro and docked five nights for free!
Our second night here, we enjoyed the sights and sounds of a wedding that took place on the deck of the Resort overlooking the marina. We very much liked the live music, especially a ten-minute piece of exciting music that we later discovered reflected the sounds of the Bahamian Festival of Junkanoo.

A couple of weather fronts blew through while we were here, but we did get a chance to take a stroll to the other side of the island and visit the beach. It's one of our favorite places to walk. The whole area is pretty quiet right now because it's not in season, but that's just fine with us.
