Something we forgot to put on the Bequia blog.
 
 
The first morning we were in Bequia, three of us were doing our water aerobics off the back of Vivace when we saw a large dark shape and a fin in the water! Within seconds we were out the water and on the bathing platform, hearts beating like mad.Turned out to be a stingray about 5ft across and the "fin" was one of its wingtips. There were three swimming round together, two smaller ones. A different way to get your heartbeat up when you are exercising!
