Leaving Spanish Wells had a tricky channel and narrow cut so we went south west to prevent some roadblocks.  Our night anchored off Egg Island was relaxing and beautiful.  We took the mile and half dingy ride over to a sandbar that had swings and resident Rays.  We took a walk on a nearby beach and gathered fire wood.  After dinner on the boat, we enjoyed a beach fire and bottle of wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"
