St Lucia - July 10, 2013 Jalousie Beach Break - Spencer Ambrose Tours

We took the Spencer Ambrose Jalousie Beach Break when our ship (Jewel of the Sea) was in port in St Lucia. Most folks took a land and sea tour but we opted for just the beach break. There was just the three of us on the boat with a couple that was headed to climb the Pitons that we dropped off before hitting Jalousie Beach The snorkeling in this protected marine reserve is great...IF you get there early! About noon, when the land tours drop off guests here, the water gets pretty churned up and sea life is scarce. Fortunately we got there around 10 am and had a few hours with little to no one else there, and it was fantastic! We were also supplied with a great lunch and plenty of various cold beverages including water, soda and beer. About 2:30 we headed back into the boat with some guests from the land tour for the sea tour back to the ship. The guide was knowledgeable and amusing and we had a few laughs while we learned a little about the island and took in some beautiful scenery including Marigot Harbour (which I didn't get any video of cuz the battery died... thanks Obama). All in all, it was a great day.
