Warderick Wells

Warderick Wells is the headquarters of the Bahamas Land and Sea Park.  There are several hikes through tropical brush, a few snorkel spots teaming with fish, and a great sand bar in the middle of the north bay.  The few buildings are living quarters for the park rangers and a small gift shop.

For a crew used to spending the day in the water, hikes are death marches. It’s a good thing the path to the other side of the island can be covered in about 15 minutes.  About 8 minutes into it the complaints started flying until we came across this hole with a ladder.

Genny came prepared with driftwood she carved and decorated to leave among the contributions from previous cruisers.

Now that we’ve been dry for about 30 minutes the girls and I raced to the beach while Roy and Eric went to bring the dinghy around.  Ahhh, back in the water.

There is a gap in the mooring balls between us and the next boat over.  Come to find out a few years back a boat was moored there and while the owners were having dinner on another boat, their boat caught on fire, burned and sunk right there.  Now its an artificial reef providing shelter for some of the biggest lobsters I’ve ever seen.  Sea creatures living in the park are happy and growing big and fat under the park’s protection.

One of our snorkel spots was full of life including the Nassau Grouper.  Roy is learning about spear fishing now and this guy will become one of his targets in March when they are in season.

The schools of fish were fun to watch move around.  They reminded me of the movie Finding Nemo when the school of fish formed pictures directing Marlin to Australia.

Rays are abundant but only a few jump out of the water.  When they do, the splash gets everyone’s attention.

Sponges and conchs are also abundant. We’ve seen the sponges in green, brown and purple.  Conchs are sometimes filled with the conch critter and sometimes with huge hermit crabs.

We’ve found the Bahamas to either be barren sand flats with grassy patches or beautiful patches of coral.
