A Trip to Capers Island

For a couple of years now, I have read about Capers Island (North of Charleston SC, just off the ICW). So, this trip, we decided to make it a priority and stop. Passages and Kismet were anchored in Whiteside Creek by 1500. And off we all went in the dinghy for the mile plus trip across the ICW to Capers Inlet. The interesting thing about this area is that storms destroyed the dunes, and then exposed the trees to the sea, resulting in very interesting formations. Of course, before we took the right turn to the beach we walked 2 miles through the forest with gazillion mosquitoes chasing us. When we arrived at the beach (finally), we had cocktails, before heading back to the mother ships! Today we motored through Charleston, to set the anchor in Tom Point Creek for the night. Tomorrow we will be in Beaufort, SC. It was finally 70 degrees today.
