Late that night, we anchored for the night off Carriacou., and in the morning moved around the point into Hillsborough Harbour. We visited the town and walked a way out of town and back. The main street in Hillsborough was as busy as ever, although it doesn't cater to tourist like some places. After lunch, we moved over to Sandy island, for an afternoon of beaching and snorkeling. The island is basically two small islands, joined by a short sandspit.
Reefs surround the islands on three sides.
Over the last few years, the easternmost spit has lost its Palm Trees and vegetation. John Caldwell has planted a few to replace them. There seemed to be more sand than the last time I was there, and the sandspit was higher. Back on the ship, at swizzle time, we were joined by group of islanders that have a Parang Band. For some reason, we also won, and he and I won bottles of Campaign.
