Sea Turtles and Shipwrecks

We took the day off today (hahaha) from taking church pictures and went on a day cruise on a local catamaran boat. It was so so so much fun!

We boarded the boat in Bridgetown in the morning and sailed around to a few different bays where we got to snorkel with sea turtles, schools of sergeant major fish, and around an old ship wreck! We then left the shoreline and sailed out through the deeper water around the island and headed to a little cove near the northern end of the island. As we sailed, we saw lots of little flying fish and more sea turtles bobbing near the surface. The crew was super nice, they taught us how to dance and adjust the sails and kept our glasses full of fresh pineapple juice the whole day:) Once we arrived at the cove the crew made us lunch and we got to dive off the deck and swing off the ropes of the ship into the water. Every time we go swimming I am just blown away by how clear the water here is! Even when we were out on the deeper parts of the ocean it was still clear enough that I could see all the way to the bottom.

My favorite part of the day was definitely the sea turtles, they are so cute, but the whole experience was a blast. If you ever have the chance to come to Barbados, I highly recommend a catamaran cruise as a must-do activity!
