Personal Notes
- One of our favorite anchorages in the Abacos. The harbor is full of sea turtles and dolphin. Pete's Pub serves the freshest fish around (and an occasional beer or rum drink!). The art gallery and studios are amazing. (Buy Randolf Johnston's book for a delightful chronicle of his family's settlement of the area starting in the early 1950s.) A boardwalk leads from the Pub to the beach. Excellent swimming and snorkeling in nearby Robinson's Bight (with blue holes and nice beaches). Altogether, a beautiful relaxing spot for a few hours or a few days.
