Little Current to Gore Bay

We left Little Current on Tuesday for the last time on a beautiful, sunny morning with light winds and headed a short distance to the Benjamin Island group for some more time on the hook. We stern tied at Croker Island and settled back for some relaxing days in this beautiful anchorage. We took the time to go ashore and explore the rocky hills that surround the bay and to take a dip in the crystal clear water. It was nice until day three when it started raining. We entertained ourselves watching some movies we had onboard. Below you will find some shots we took on our dingy excursions. Note the unique rock formation we call "the finger". You will also see a picture of a snake that was just about to go for a swim. It was about 3.5 feet long and is a common sight in these parts. There is also a short video showing a potential anchorage in the future.



















We are now in Gore Bay at the town marina for a night and will head out tomorrow for another night at anchor before making a long passage west to the last stop in Canada at the town of Bruce Mines. We’ve never been there before but were told it has some nice places to eat. After that we will head back into US waters with a stop at Drummond Island, Michigan.
