    Thanks for the great pics. We will be returning in December, and staying on Calabash as well. We will definitely check out Waikiki.

    We sat and watched these fishermen load their boat one day- talked to one of their son's for a little while, he said his father was going out for 4 weeks. It was amazing to see those guys get that boat loaded. They've got it down to a science.

    I saw that boat my last reach. I had no idea they stayed out so long. Wow!


    Did you notice whether Eggy's was up and running? I had heard he had been dealing with some health issues.

    I didn't notice if Eggy's was open or not. There were people sitting on the patio there, but they could have just been sitting and the place not be open. (?) We had come down the beach from Frenchman's Reef to watch the fishermen unload their boats, and saw Eggy's only from the side, not from the front.

    BaileysMom & Spiff,

    Since the topic of fishing, lobster, and the fishing industry in TB has come up I thought I would share some info I came across regarding a current concern In Jamaica, especially the South Coast of over fishing. The Galleon Fish Sanctuary has been established to address this problem. http://www.breds.org/projects_ongoing.php?n=101

    Lobster and Conch (A Huge Source of Foreign Exchange) have been hit especially hard over the past several years.

    I am by no means an expert on the subject but we who love Jamaica and all it's resources, from human to natural, should understand and be aware of the problems that exist and the positive efforts being utilized to reverse the current dangers to Jamaica's waters and reefs!!!

    A good way to help replenish fish stocks would be to ask for lionfish. Strikey-T's wraps theirs in foil with coconut milk and scallions, thyme and fresh veggies. I've had it jerked at Little Ochie. If your cook shop doesn't have it, ask for it. We are it's only predator so eat up. It tastes like a buttery sweet sea scallop.Name:  Jerk Lionfish at Little Ochie.jpg

    Thanks for the information about the fishing issue, JohnG. MilwaukeeMike, that fish looks delicious! My husband had lion fish at Canoe when we were there in February. Very tasty!

    A couple of more photos from Treasure Beach, taken during the Heroes Day weekend. I love watching Jamaicans play dominoes- and the kids playing in the water... amazes me how they can jump off the boats into knee high to chest high water and nobody got hurt... nobody telling them they shouldn't do that, they're going to break their neck... kids being allowed to be kids. Fun times!
