We decided to double back and sail to Union Island again. A couple of different people told us about Chatham Bay and how nice it was. We thought that Clifton Harbour was too crowded the night we stayed there so we left Union Island without exploring it further.

We are definitely glad that we decided to stay in this sleepy bay. There were three or four beach bars sprinkled along the side of the bay. And, a bungalow hotel capped the lower end of the bay. There was snorkeling all throughout the bay as well as a reef to the northeastern side. And, the water was calm enough that I was able to take the standup paddleboard out for rides each day. We ate at the hotel restaurant under a palapa-style roof. We also went to a restaurant at the pink beach bar (I don’t know its name).

In this bay locals come by the boat to sell fish and lobster. I actually bought some red snapper, which was delicious!
