It has been a while since I've seen a thread like this - the rules are simple: attempt to identify the location of the last posted picture in the thread. Once the picture poster confirms the first correct responder that person then gets to add a (sailing-related) picture to the thread and the game continues.
Since I'm no good at this type of guesswork my only chance of getting a picture into the thread is by starting it off with the following picture:
This is a big photo but I can only post it like this without putting the page out of configuration. Anyway you can see clearly the shape of the place. It is a famous one.
Not Bahamas... The Frigate Bird colony is quite well known. This island is difficult to visit if swell is running high. The anchorage is very shallow and the reef is too. Not a cruise ship stop, very low population.
Hum : Magnificent frigatebirds live along American, tropical coastlines. They breed as far north as 25 degrees north latitude in Mexico and Florida and as far south 27 degrees south latitude in Brazil. They are especially common in southern Florida, the Gulf Coast, the Caribbean islands and the west coast of Mexico.
Ok, an easy one from a great place. Historic town, very sheltered place, very good holding, lots of wind at night.

I suspect the palm trees were planted
