Martinique to St. Lucia
It was 1500 hours when we left Martinique. The sailing conditions were perfect for a run to St. Lucia.
We set sail confident about anchoring in the dark upon our arrival. At 2030 hours we lay anchor in Rodney Bay, St. Lucia tucked in behind Pigeon Point. In the morning we were surprised to find we lay almost in the swimming area/beach of a Sandals resort. oops Anchor to anchor - Martinique to St. Lucia - 22 miles - 5 1/2 hours
We coned the coast, past the lovely Windjammer resort, Marigot Bay and along south to St. Lucia's famous Pitons. We would have liked to stay awhile here, but this popular area was a jumble of mooring balls (mostly full), so at 1500 hours for the second day in a row, we set sail for the next island south in the Windward Chain - St. Vincent.
