The Dock at Night



This picture was taken by Nick Goddard (SHBL Diver Master) on a near full moon. Being that there are no outdoor lights on the lodge the picture was able to be taken with out any disruption to the exposure. The only lights that can be seen are the lights from Nassau on the horizon. Add to this the brightness of the full moon and its reflection and you get an effect as if the SUN was rising instead of a rising moon.

Sea Slug while Diving at Small Hope on Andros Island, Bahamas


Brittany (Small Hope Bay Dive Master) holds up a Sea Slug to show guests. This big guy was found on the Barge during one of our afternoon dives. The picture was taken by Nick Goddard, another Small Hope Dive Master. He has just started a new hobby, underwater photography. Not a bad picture if I say so myself.
*No Sea Slugs were harmed in the making of this Blog :-)

Small Hope Gets a Little Greener


Our Nursery is up and running. We just received a delivery of Boston and Kimberly Queen Ferns, as well as some Bleeding Heart's and Jasmine plants. Franko, our new gardener, is doing a great job maintaining the grounds around Small Hope Bay. Just have a look for yourself in the picture above; we have decorated the patios of the cabins with some of the Kimberly Queen ferns.

Children at the Lodge

These coral-rock cairns were made by several of our young guests at low tide and can be seen throughout the day standing proud out of the water.

These same children are enjoying the wonder of one of our hammocks, having discovered its ability to double as a spinning swing!
