April 15, Sandestin to Pensacola Beach

Heading out to Chocktawhatchee Bay
Crane Barge on the Intracoastal Waterway, Chocktawhatchee Bay

ICW shoreline park


Huge Military Radar tower near Manatee Point, Santa Rosa Island



Little Sabine Bay Pensacola Beach
We Left Baytowne Marina at 9:15 the weather was fine but a bit breezy with East winds 10-15
Chocktawhatchee Bay had a light chop. Along the way we met a crane barge heading East, it is one of the few commercial vessels we have seen on the waterway since leaving Louisiana.
We passed lots of Military installations on Santa Rosa Island mainly radar and air support equipment.
We arrived at Pensacola Beach Marina, right next to the bridge about 2:30 and tied up behind an 85 foot yacht. We were here in our Camano in 2007, the marina had a very good gourmet grocery and wine store then but it closed 6 months ago, too bad it was a nice place.
We had dinner at Hemmingway's across the street it is quite good.
