Season 4 | Episode 60 | Exploring Little Harbor on Catalina Island
Hello Friends!
Coming in after dark we looked over the charts and sounded our way into 30ft of water and dropped the hook.
Sailing into an anchorage after dark is not advised but sometimes it is necessary and you just have to deal with it. We had both paper charts and digital charts and could see land masses for points of reference so we new we were anchored in a safe spot. Sailors have been anchoring in the dark for centuries but I feel the need to include this in the description because someone insulted me and questioned by seamanship because we anchored after dark, and its more than likely that that person as only ever gone day sailing and doesn’t understand that when you are cruising sometimes you have to deal with situations that are not ideal, which is what we did, and we did it perfectly.
While the location we ended up anchoring in was safe it was not at all comfortable. We spent a very rolly night with a heavy swell rolling in but our anchor alarm never sounded and the hook held fast.
Upon first light and after a cup of coffee I hauled up the hook and we moved in closer to shore and behind the natural breakwater that makes Little Harbor such a wonderful anchorage. Finally dropping the hook with 9 ft of water under our keel.
This clear skies and a warm sun I took Camille out for her first ever snorkeling. As we both floated next to the boat Camille put her face in the water and pulled it right out and said “there are two massive rays below us”! The snorkeling was truly incredible and we got to see our first ever “Shovel nosed guitar fish” who circled back to give us a look.
After a full day of snorkeling and swimming we went ashore in search of Bison. Legend has it that a herd of Bison were brought to Catalina in the 1920s for a movie shoot and have remained there ever since.
We quickly found a pair and watched these mellow creatures for awhile.
Little Harbor ended up being the most amazing anchorage of the trip and editing this video for you all has made us want to go back RIGHT NOW!
Thanks to our Patrons, Your contributions help us get the boat in order to do big things!
Until Next Week,
