Claiming Sand on Silver

We claimed an isolated stretch of Silver Beach as our own.  Angling into one of only two parking spots and tossing our towels onto the sand made it our unofficial second home for two lovely days in August.  Our private spot was well beyond Red Beach and Secret Beach and required a bouncing crawl of a drive down the pitted narrow road that meandered out east of Blue Beach.

Secreted behind sea grapes, mangroves, beach vines and coconut palms, our chosen place had the feel of a well appointed deserted island.  The shallow waters were clear and the sand was soft. We had gathered food and water en route at La Tienda Verde (The Green Store) and needed little more other than our sunscreen and snorkel masks.

We had read about a coral bed located on the far side of the island just to our west.  And after trailing a turtle and stalking various fish in the shallows, we crossed the sea grasses and swam through deeper waters over a sandy sea floor to find out for ourselves…

More underwater photos and video later this week!
