British Bulldog Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Today, tomorrow, next week, next June .... all too late I fear ! I have often 'sailed' into the bay early morning to escape the mass of high speed tourist boats which hit the bay by 08.30/09.00 .... whilst snorkelling in the bay, the bottom is riddled with rubbish, plastic bags and beer and soft drink cans mainly .... even saw small fish trapped in a bag trying to fight their way out ... it was too deep for me to go to the rescue.
