Cayo Blanco de Casilda (Cuba)

21° 38 N 079° 53 W

We dropped anchor in a little bay of Cayo Blanco, or the "White Cayo". The water was shimmering in the setting sun. Early the next morning, at about nine thirty, we went for a snorkel on the coral heads surrounding the boat. In the afternoon, a fisherman gave us 3 baby lobster. Once the man was out of sight, I slipped into the water, the 3 lobsters in my hands and swam to the nearest coral head where each of the lobsters crawled into their own cave. On the 16 January 2001, my birthday, I was swimming around the boat, where I saw and collected eight Sea Biscuits and three Sand Dollars. On the 18 January we left Cayo Blanco bound for Cayo Breton.
