Haven't ever seen it in HopeTown. You can order online from www.buysafesea.com and it comes in a few days. We used the combination sun block and protector, and we certainly had fewer problems than we usually do. My daughter and I nearly always break out in a rash and this helped a lot. I'd order right away so you're sure to have it. Be sure to use it UNDER your bathing suit. Have a great trip, I'm jealous!

You can also buy Safe Sea at the Dive Shop at the Moorings in Marsh Harbour. Can't remember the price there, but regular price mail order is around $12. Be aware that each bottle only contains 4 oz so you may need more than one. Great sun protectant as well as anti-jellyfish etc.

Have a wonderful trip.

Have there been sea-lice problems lately? I know we have them here in Palm Beach County currently. My estimation is they are thicker in areas close to the Gulf Stream. I only say that due to Palm Beach County having it worse than north of here and south of here and not getting it much in the islands usually. The old "rule of thumb" is they are here between Mothers Day and Fathers Day then start to thin out. They came earlier than Mothers Day this year. Just curious.

We were in Great Guana Cay May 22 - June 1 and brought a bottle of it, but never used it, and we never had any trouble.

I have heard that some jellies, sponges, and corals will spawn on a full moon in the spring ... some of these critters are stingy ... full moon coming in five days ... anybody heard any truth to this? /sam :)
