Pete and I decided to try Shroud Cay next. We had a couple of hours sail from Norman to Shroud and found ourselves a mooring buoy on the west side of Shroud and headed off to explore the island. Shroud had creeks that run through it's interior and we spent much of the day exploring them on foot and kayak.

We got some looks as I pulled Pete in with my kayak as he sat like an emperor in the inflatable. |

Mary Annie is at the far right. It was always the smallest boat at the marina or at anchor. |
After a nice stay at Shroud Cay, we made our way to Hawksbill Cay, just a short sail away. We anchored off a beautiful beach and prepared to assault the island with enthusiasm, sunglasses, and sneakers. What we found was a gem.

We found a trail marked by cairns and followed it for a near circumnavigation of the island. It was a very nice hike with great views of the beaches.
