We remember visiting Tahiti beach with fond memories as we’d visited it about three years ago on a past charter we did with friends. It was a gorgeous sand spit back then with shelling and snorkeling in the shallow waters. This time however, we found the sand spit had eroded, sea weed fouled much of the beach, the snorkeling was non-existent (Sarah thinks this was due to new waterfront development nearby that silted up the shallows), and capitalism has since moved in with the ‘Thirsty ‘Cuda’ - a floating bar and concession barge that seems to now be a staple item here. Anyway, we made the most of the morning, had lunch aboard then headed over to eastern shore of Elbow Cay for some beach time.

Upon returning to Juno, Sarah decided to swim the anchor to make sure it was set and noticed a three foot long remora that was pretty comfortable underneath Juno. As remoras usually hang out with sharks or rays, Sarah made a point to make the anchor check as quick as possible. Dinner was tilapia fish tacos and gazpacho.
