08 The Sharks at Compass Cay

Another spot close to Pig Island that's worth including in a day trip is Compass Cay. If swimming with animals is your thing, you have to see the nurse sharks. They can reach up to 14 feet long and their fins look very intimidating from above, once you get in the water, you see how harmless they are. They've become such a part of the culture in Compass Cay that the locals have given them names, including Ross, Mutt, and Chunky.
