Walked to grocery store, two small well stocked stores almost side by side. Ate dinner at the YC with Duane & Gigi. Food and service were very good. 

Light winds but picked up to 8-9kts, close haul sail for most of the day. Motor sailing at beginning and end of the trip. Beautiful day on calm seas. Arrived at cut 1 hour after low tide, current quite significant through narrows from cut to the Yacht Club. Picked up a mooring in front of the yacht club. Will stay here for two nights. 
Next day:
Visited pig beach early in the morning, the piglets were very cute but the pigs were so skinny.  Also saw a ray and a nurse shark which I liked better than the pigs. Felt sorry for the pigs and saw a pig skull floating at the shore ☹️ 
Later in the day we visited Thunderball Grotto at low tide, snorkelled inside, easy to enter at low tide. The colourful coral and fish were amazing. A bit challenging to anchor the dinghy on the west side but a larger boat there offered to let several dinghies tie up to his boat which was very nice. 
Saw the shark feeding frenzy in front of the YC. 
A busy place but we enjoyed it.
