South Benjamin Island to Croker Island anchorage, Ontario, Canada

 On Sunday afternoon the wind calmed down and we dashed across the two mile stretch to go behind Croker Island, There was one other boat tied stern to shore in the small cove we anchored in. It was another scenic anchorage with high stone cliffs that we could spot fire rings on. It was a pleasant evening up on the fly bridge.


On Monday, we had a flotilla of 4  looper boats come in and raft up and then another sailboat anchored behind us and another catamaran went around to the other anchorage but we could see the through the narrow dinghy passage. We took the dinghy and landed on two of the beaches on Croker Island and had a dog from the campsite join us for a walk. We could not find any trails through the thick forest and decided not to climb the slippery rock slopes.










The rains came on Monday night and Tuesday it was cloudy and cool and still windy, The flotilla took off and it just left one boat with us overnight. We had a peaceful day and planned to leave on Wednesday when the winds calmed down.
