Our first stop was Despotica. A particularly appropriate name for this obviously despotic group. It had a little uninhabited island, ideal for exploring.

Very good snorkeling with clear water.

A rocky point that looked north, and where the waves crashed into the rock.

And a beach that could give most in the BVI a good run for their money. It was so nice that, unlike us, we actually stayed two nights.

But after that, it was time weigh anchor and head for the "Little Cyclades".
