Sandy Point

Categories :

(3/30/18) Sandy Point is about 50 miles south of Marsh Harbour.  Most members of this tiny community make their living fishing.  The road winds around the coast with glimpses of the Atlantic ocean between the casaurina trees.  At a wide point in the road we pulled off to get a better view.  Castaway Island is about eight miles away and provides many work opportunities for the community.  Castaway Cay was at one time known as Gorda Cay but was renamed after being purchased by Walt Disney as an exotic destination for its cruise ships.  

 

Castaway Island is just beyond the ship that can be seen in the distance.
