Around 5pm yesterday, we had the opportunity to go for a swim, so Sepa and I got our gear and scrambled onto the motorboat. We went around a few little bays and pulled in at what looked like the entrance to a cave.
Inside the cave, it opened up and we could walk through an area where it had been hollowed out through erosion over millions of years. There were quite a few stalactites and we could also hear some bats calling, which we spotted on the way out.
At this point it was a bit of a maze, but we knew we were going to end up going for a swim, so we hung in there, despite the drips from above that could have been lime drips, but could have been bat drops.
I am going to call it well worth the walk! We have a beach that was just for us and it was surrounded by high rocks and open at the very far end to the sea. It was warm enough to be nice to get into, but refreshing enough to know you have been for a swim. There were two downsides, first was the walk back meant that we needed another cooling dip by the time we got there and the second was the Something About Mary moment with the bat poo, but that’s another story.
