"Do I smell conch fritters?!" | Sailing Soulianis - Ep. 76

We’ve arrived at idyllic Elbow Cay, a Bahamian island with a little bit of everything: an adorable little town, a handful of surf breaks, showers, a coffee house, one nicely paved road, rum cocktails, and even a game of bingo.

Of all these things, surf breaks have been the hardest to find. Finding a surf break is better than striking gold; catching a wave is pure joy. Kirk’s been on the hunt for waves since we left SoCal. The Bahamas aren’t known as a surfing destination, but we heard rumors a few waves could be found, so we embarked on a multi-day mission to find them.

If there’s no waves to be found, skating a freshly-paved road with just the right incline is the next best thing. It’s also a great way to get yourself from A to B (i.e. from the dock to the beach bar 😉)

Hope you enjoy!
Lauren & Kirk

THE ABACO ISLANDS, POST-HURRICANE DORIAN:

This footage was filmed prior to the utter devastation wreaked by Hurricane Dorian in September 2019. Dorian hit the Abaco Islands as a category 5 hurricane, with sustained winds of 185 mph, flattening most structures and leaving 70,000 people homeless. They are still rebuilding — and will be for a long time.

If you’d like to help the Abacos, check out PERC https://www.percabaco.org/. This is a 503c organization which supports a number of Abaco-based charities and is tax-deductible for U.S. residents.
