4-8-2013, Cape Haze anchorage, Mile 36 on the GIWW

Good Bye to Snook Bight Marina.  After 5 weeks at Fort Myers Beach we are heading north to get ready to cross the Gulf again.  This time will be going West; a directions we haven't gone before.

We have really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be back next year.  The marina is newly remodeled with wide floating docks, the people working here are great, and the Bay Front Bistro on the premises had a wonderful menu and the prices are in line with all others in the area.  We had awesome walks on the sandy beach each morning, and we have had good weather.  Publix grocery store is right in the parking lot and you can bring your full grocery cart down to the boat to unload, what more can you ask for.

We got a late start today but we did 5 hours and got to one of our favorite anchorages; Cape Haze.

CO's comments:  Wonderful day, all is working fine.  The only inconvenience we had was on the Miserable Mile out of Fort Myers.  There were several inconsiderate, large boats, that would not slow down for anyone and throwing wild wakes that darn near swamped a pontoon boat.  This is the first time at this anchorage that we have had other boats anchored with us but it is not a problem.  We went by Cayo Costa anchorage and there were so many anchored we probably would not have fit if we wanted to.

Snook Bight Marina, Snook is a local fish and Bight is similar to a cove.
