Departure should be 8-10hrs prior to sunrise. Plan to arrive on the banks in daylight so you can see where your going and the marks to safely approach.
Day 2: Clear customs and Immigration at Alice Town. Bimini Blue Water Marina is a nice place to stay the first night. Rent scooters and explore Alice Town. Eat dinner in a local restaurant.

Day 6: Sail to Tuna Alley and enjoy this world-class snorkel/dive site. Tuna Alley is a 50' to 80' dive with coral caverns and giant crevasses. This reef is home to many reef fish and smoe turtles. You may want to spend your a night in the Cat Cay Marina. There is fine dining there at the marina as well as a more casual dining room.
Day 7: Take it easy today...you'll be sailing all night. We reccomend you leave a couple hours before sunset so you still have good visibity. Sail on into the key largo area. Anchor off Rodriguez Key or pick up a mooring at Pennekamp Park.
Day 8: Rise early and head into the marina. Prepare the boat for check-in before 12noon.
Dont forget to throw out a line while you are sailing. It is not uncommon to catch a Dolphin, Tuna, Pompano, Mackerel, and Wahoo. Nothing better than Tuna Sashimi.
