Unlike Warderick Wells, where we had our "Emerald City" all to ourselves, we had to share the bay at Shroud Cay with two mega-yachts.  They weren't anchored very near us, but we were sort of glad to see them go, just the same.

Here's Ellipsis anchored behind the rocks.  Shroud Cay has several creeks that you can dinghy up and we were in the mouth of one of these creeks when we took this picture.

We explored the creeks, which we had to ourselves.  Here is our dinghy on the beach of the mouth of the creek where the fresh water well can be found.  In the foreground are some "dead" conch shells.

We explored a different creek that leads all across the cay to the other side.  There you can find Camp Driftwood, which is a camp where a hermit lived and now people leave mementos up there with their boat name. 

There was also an excellent "floating beach", where we just floated in the warm clear water and looked at rocks and the sky.  Here I am at our "private floating beach".
