The run to Warm Springs Bay was comfortable in calm seas. On account of the name, it is no surprise that the attraction here are the natural hot springs. There is as small community of vacation homes and a state public dock, which is generally occupied.
When we arrived, Mac from the DavidEllis went ashore in the dinghy and sized up the available spot. It was tight but Dave Nagle expertly put in his boat in it despite the strong current coming from a nearby stream. I then brought Alpenglow alongside to side tie to it.
We arrived with ample time to walk the quarter mile up the board walk trail to the hot springs sitting above the rushing stream (river?). The water temperatures were warm and very relaxing. The photo, right, is of Mac and Marcia in the pool.
Mac has been a guest of the Nagles since the middle of June. He is a retired police officer from Australia. Besides sharing the same occupation as Dave Nagle, he is also a dive instructor like Dave.
The photo below is a panorama of the bay, dock, stream inlet and some of the homes at Warm Springs Bay.
