Even though I had my polarizing sunglasses on and was standing at the front of the boat, it was hard to see the tall coral reefs off of Coco Point until we were on top of them. We were incredibly lucky that we didn’t hit any of them. We found a nice place to anchor and enjoyed the sunny afternoon. The water was fairly clear and a large turtle would pop up for air relatively close to our boat. The bottom was sandy, which made the water appear turquoise. After snorkeling, Steve decided that he wanted to move the boat closer to shore. The anchor chain was in a good place. However, there was a rock close by and he didn’t want the boat to swing and have the chain get caught under the rock.
The last time we were at Coco Point, there was a hotel on the point and the K club was abandoned. Quite a bit of construction has taken place and most of the point was built up. It was unclear to us if the construction in the picture was part of the hotel or another development. Princess Di beach in this area is still beautiful and most of it remained natural and undeveloped.
