Exuma – Dinghy Ride Through the Mangroves to the Washing Machine – "It’s hard to choose just one part of Exuma that stands out, because this entire 365-island chain holds a special place in my heart—it’s my favourite place in the world. But one experience that never gets old is taking a dinghy ride through the mangroves. As you glide through those tranquil, shallow waters, you’re surrounded by lush greenery, and everything feels peaceful and untouched. Eventually, you reach the ‘Washing Machine,’ a natural whirlpool created by the tides, where the adventure really begins. Holding onto a line and being towed behind the dinghy is such a thrill—you're pulled through the currents while witnessing the most beautiful fish and wildlife in these clear, shallow waters. After that, you head over to Shroud Cay Beach, where you can relax on a sandbar and enjoy a laid-back lunch. It’s not uncommon to find yourself going back into the whirlpool a few times, and every time is as exciting as the first. This is the kind of place where you can’t help but be in awe of the natural beauty surrounding you—it’s an experience that always leaves me feeling refreshed and reconnected to nature." – Sydney Ginns, CEO & Founder of Baha Babes.
