You'll still find cobblestone remnants
along this old Danish road that leads to the ruins of the Leinster
Bay Estate and Watermelon Bay.
The road borders a popular boat anchorage and swimming and snorkeling
area. Sea turtles come ashore at night to bury their
eggs on the beach during summer, something worth staying up late to
see.
If you walk the seashore of Leinster Bay,
you may hear what sounds like the laughter of a psychopathic maniac.
It's the cry of the duck-like bird known as a coot
and apparently the source of the term, "crazy as a coot."
