We Sorta had an Emergency! Ep. 47

Yesterday we visited the famous swimming pigs at Big Major's Spot and then motored over to Staniel Cay, so we could explore the Thunderball Grotto Cave! The snorkeling was SO FANTASTIC that we decided we had to see it again! The Thunderball Grotto Cave is located between Staniel Cay and Big Major's Spot, in the Exumas of The Bahamas. The cave itself is very large with several openings to get inside. The largest opening is on the East side and lets in a significant amount of bright "blue" light under the water. It was kinda like being inside a lava lamp, if you can imagine that. Haha! We were amazed that for the majority of our time at the cave, we were basically by ourselves. We must have timed it just right, because we know that several dive groups come and go to the cave throughout the day. The tide flows fairly strong around and within the cave, so be cautious while snorkeling. It could be easy to drift into sharp rocks and hit your head, or float away and then have to fight the current to get back to where you need to be. We did notice a dive group leader create a path with rope to help snorkelers get from the boat to the interior of the cave. One of our favorite parts of visiting Thunderball Grotto was the vibrant sea life. It was totally incredible to see! We saw so many different kinds of fish, a sea turtle, a stingray, and large corals. There was always something new to see each time we went back for a swim. After snorkeling at the cave we took the dinghy over to the marina at Staniel Cay, so we could check out the local grocery stores. We found the Blue and Pink stores without getting lost and ended up buying some vegetables to go with our dinner. Being inside the stores felt kinda strange to us, because it almost felt like we walked into someones house and raided their pantry. Both stores were very small, but seemed to have a decent selection of items to choose from. We were even lucky enough to find some cookies that weren't too expensive! haha *********************************************************************** THANK YOU for watching our videos and for SUBSCRIBING to our YouTube channel!
