SAILING IN SEARCH OF BLUE HOLES - Ep 190
Join us as we embark on a thrilling sailing adventure in search of pristine blue holes scattered throughout the remote and untouched waters of the Bahamas. Alongside seasoned sailors Travis and Steph, witness their unique experience off-the-grid living on the secluded Ragged Islands, where only goats inhabit these stunning islands.
Ragged Islands – An Untouched Paradise
Famed for their untouched beauty and pristine landscapes, the Ragged Islands are an ideal spot for Travis and Steph to revel in seclusion and experience true off-the-grid living. As they explore these secluded islands, witness their exciting beach bonfire and open-fire cookout featuring freshly caught fish.
In Search of Blue Holes
Ravenous for adventure, the duo sets sail in pursuit of blue holes – breathtaking marine formations hidden beneath the Bahama’s crystal-clear waters. After spotting a peculiar green hole on one island, they take turns venturing into its depths to explore what lies beneath.
Bull Shark Encounters
A thrilling turn of events takes place as they sail through the Tanna Banks, located north of Ragged Island and south of Exuma. Known for their resident bull sharks that patrol the bay, this location provides a heart-pumping adrenaline rush as Travis jumps into the water to observe them firsthand.
Spearfishing Expeditions
In an effort to catch their dinner, Travis and Steph engage in thrilling spearfishing expeditions while visiting the various blue holes. Witness their excitement as they each successfully land a colorful grouper.
Exploring Fisherman’s Bay
Moving on to the picturesque Fisherman’s Bay, they discover a lively hub for fishermen to clean their catches and toss them back into the waters. While this location may not be ideal for swimming or venturing far from your boat, its unique appeal draws in travelers seeking an authentic Bahamian experience.
