Well it was time to leave the Dry Tortugas and return to Key West. The weather continued to be favorable and we didn’t want to push our luck by staying offshore from the mainland too long.
The sail back started a bit choppy with 5-7 foot seas but laid down nicely as the morning wore on. About mid-day we had a visit from a small pod of porpoises – and we actually got some photos of them. Finally!! We’d seen porpoises on many occasions but have never had the camera nearby to get photos. We also saw a big Loggerhead turtle but he dove beneath the water before we were able to get a picture. Camera shy I guess!
Enjoy!!

That is some bright blue water. Yes, I'm jealous!
