Today we set foot on the infamous 😃island!!! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 215

Sometimes even the most straight forward of tasks leads to an adventure. We plan to check out of Carriacou only to find that the customs office closed for good just the day before. Me meet up with Greg-OR-ry and he takes us on chill ride to the main town where the officials are hangin out. They take a short break from watching KZbin videos to stamp our papers and we’re off!
We arrive at Union island, get cleared with customs and immigration, and proceed to the infamous Happy Island which it turns out is built entirely of conch shells. The owner Ravi spent the last 15 years building this island on a sand bar out of the discarded shells from the local fisherman. It’s survived countless hurricanes and now he serves a pretty mean rum punch!
Slightly hungover we find ourselves sailing towards a very special group of protected islands known as the Tobago Cays Marine park. On my first snorkel to shore I see a ray, a few turtles, and even squid. Needless to say the protection is paying off big time in this area and we’re so happy to be able to share it with you.

I would love to see a segment that included a "Where are they Now?" Interviews and updates from Delos Crew from years past. Maybe even a regular feature.

[@mikeserrano734]

Yes.

[@deeparks3112]

So good to see such healthy reefs, the coral and fish are living the life down there. Thank you for the video tour.

[@dawneverix7527]

so beautiful sea turtles have been my favorite animal all my life, maybe in my next life I can live like you do, keep up the dreams

[@formhubfar]

27:00.., Oh I had tears of laughter running down my face at this.., she states all the choices in her life and connections she has made, led her to that moment.., and I am like 50 years old, sitting at my kitchen table with no friends or family, with brain damage and possible liver cancer.., I laughed soooo hard!!! :-p

[@carlmay4205]

As I sit at my desk and prepare for another day of shapin young minds nothing makes me happier than to see The Delos Tribe sailing, diving and drinkin...and coookin!!!! Thanks Mate!!!

[@gstanley75]

Tears of joy and remembering. The last charter sail I did with my Dad, six months before he passed 20 years ago was St Vincent to Union Island with a week of snorkeling at all the cool stops between. Thanks for the memories. 👍🤘🏼

[@jasonnewcombe6899]

I don’t know if it’s the red wine but this is up there among the best episodes. Just perfect.

[@2ShoesPhoto]

You all, as a group, are masters at making people feel good! Thank you for everything all these years. You guys got me through some of the most difficult times of my life and now that I'm on my feet and making good money and have a great career, I can now work toward owning and living aboard a sailboat. This has been my dream since I found you on KZbin back when you were in Australia. Now I'm a Patreon, and striving toward purchasing a boat in the next year. Stay amazing, I hope to get a chance to sail with you one day.

[@cyprescrow]

What a life...What a life... Such a dream, sailing around the globe living THE Life. It can't get any better than that.

[@tightlinesandgoodtimes]

Props to Delos! Such a oldschool vibe in this vid.....plus the cinematography was off the charts....left me wanting more!

[@zzzxxzzz4797]

Thanks for sharing 😎

[@johnfife3062]

Pokemon for Atlantic crew! Happy Birthday Jordan! Colorful reef critters -- so trippy. Highs and lows of the week. It's a keeper feature. Missed you Kazza. Great edit Lessir & Breyan.

[@doppler3237]

this makes me really sad. There was nothing I liked better than wearing my delos shirts when new videos came out and settling for some really good entertainment, watched from the very beginning. I try to give it time and come back every now and then but for me it has just lost what drew me to it., not sure if its new crew members or maybe I have changed, I wish them well in the future especially Kazza, they got me through some rough times.

[@JesusHernandez-xp2bh]

Beautiful little island the water is so clear

[@chevywv9735]

Good morning miss blue nice to see y’all at it again

[@sjam17]

I vote for "Pokemon" to join the Delos Crew when Brady and Blue to cross the Atlantic! 😉

[@MouseToes]

YES!

[@carolinabeacher1558]

if hes who i think he is, he goes by desroy7250 on IG,

[@justinnitsuj7041]

If it can be done visa wise that would be amazing!

[@mobiltec]

Agreed. Don't look any further.

[@KevinFlanaganQuinn]

Exactly what I was going to say! Get that guy a passport!

[@roosdad1]

Your guys happiness is addictive.

[@sambulls]

Brady's hat game is on point

[@Dean0017]

I love this episode so much. Just watching it makes me feel like I'm in the Caribbean. The vibes, the people, and the water. All of it.

[@williambromley5451]

the underwater colors are awesome..👍

[@lisahopf5384]

thank you william! i've started to get more interested into colour grading lately. so just trying and learning!

[@nathanarievlis3985]

Blue's voice is so pleasant and calming. I'm gonna rip her "Good Morning" and make it my alarm .

[@zekomaybe4564]

You guys heal my soul. Thanks.

[@Twist1541]

You guys are all so baked during the cookout! I love it!

[@alexanderranetkins7233]

very cool to see the Quebec flag @ 10:54 :) Thanks for the videos and sharing your journeys with us. Safe travels.

[@DayanandhanSubramani]

You guys are enjoying the life 😍😍😍

[@ZachD555]

One of the best episodes in awhile, you guys mesh so well together with drenched.

[@overlandcuban]

I never regret watching this videos , they make my overnight shifts more fun! and interesting! keep up the awesome work guys.

[@brendanroney]

Love your videos! But when I binge watch, a "Skip Intro" link would be AMAZING. Keep up the awesome work.

[@sitrep123]

Glad to see you guys touched kiteboarding!! That has been THE only thing missing in your saga!! Would love to see you guys Kiting the Shoals you stop at!! Be Safe!! And keep em Coming!!

[@svshootingstar]

We spent 3 weeks holed up in the Tobago Cays in 1999 while freak hurricane Lenny (backwards, west-to-east) hammered the islands to the north. Charter boats would come and go as they tried to make the best of their week of vacation while getting their asses kicked hopping between anchorages. We sat in the calm protection of the reef, and it was beautiful.

[@jayforjay699]

A rainy, cool, overcast spring morning in ON, Canada but heading out to my desk job is made easier after watching this. Love Delos SO much! (wishing for daily Delos)

[@TheSippiQueen]

glad Karen feels better...she does have so much positive energy. She reminds me of my sister-in-law in the way she laughs.

[@strong002]

Thank you so much for sharing your lives and the world with us.

[@bugsywolfe]

Do you remember the days when a sailing vessel could go anywhere to any island and there was no stamping in and stamping out ? Though you may have been welcomed by sustained canon fire.

[@draxxes1]

That ending with Brian NEVER gets old! I still laugh to this day. :D

[@johnhand8075]

I agree. It's fun to hear Josje there at the end.

[@monsterslayer4317]

Bloody awesome, guys...my heart is full of gratitude. Poor Kaza! Get well!

[@briannaxosjv]

Blues slurred speech is priceless !!

[@philipmackin1025]

Flew in from St Vincent twice just to visit the turtle sanctuary and Happy Island. The water taxi fellow had a few too many wobbly pops and crashed his boat into the dock. Made me have another look at our photos of that day

[@justincoleman2740]

I'm a broken record but man, you guys are choosing great music. Especially at the beginning with Blue and towards the end diving with the background respirator sounds. Thanks.

[@TheLeleke]

thats the SV_delos video i like to watch! party, local people, drinks, diving, tiny islands... and friday video!!! Thank you from Brazil Ceara!

[@donzie13]

LOVE you all! You have all taken us all out of a place that is not where we want to be. Thank you all and we wish you all well.

[@John-hw3ds]

Spent last New Years on Union Island. Cruiser Party on the MainStreet. Best New Years ever!

[@3rubberboats]

Your videos are most exceptional inspiring. Experiencing the joys of being with and learning from many different people makes your journey even more special. Outstanding videos. Have an exceptional wonderful day.

[@fifich6953]

When you get under the water level, I'm just lulling in an acquarium. Wish I could pass a Birthday like this even with Blue cutting my hair!!!!! Awesome guys. Love ya!!!💞💞💞🎂⛵👌🐬🐟🐚

[@specialty_k]

Tobago Cays is so beautiful! Thank you for taking my mind away from my problems for a while. I REALLY needed that!

[@mattmit1998]

"Nobody has time to be perfect". Might have to get that tattooed on me

[@dtxfaded]

Make sure to spell a word wrong

[@AdventuresofanoldSeadog]

Loving it.

[@raftskibum]

I knew I could sense some Lisa editing before I saw the credits. Good stuff!

[@KristineS73]

I was wondering where kazza was the whole first half of video! Poor thing its the worst to be sick when your prego! Thank you SV Delos for the excellent video. I always wait to see that notification. Love ya all! 🌊⛵🍻

[@SailingNewBeginning]

Great video! Looks like fun adventures. Happy sailing!

[@annafraley5388]

That was a DeHavaland of Canada, DHC-6 Twin Otter, they are Great Bush, STOL 6:13 and 8:11 also, they have twin PT-6 Turbo Prop engines on them. My husband flew cargo with them Bach in the early 80’s. What a Great Birthday Jordan had, even a Swedish Chocolate cake 🍰, loved that little “Haircut” island 24:58

[@megandalessandro4290]

Classic Delos Episode. I love it.

[@brianb6603]

Excellent as usual!!!

[@christopherlgroves]

[@shawnsweet779]

I don't think EPIC sailing and good times get any better than this! Love Delos!

[@Falcon-ug5sk]

Happy Birthday Jordan 🎂 Excellent video as always Delos!!!

[@srqlisa7881]

KAZ when I had hospitlalized morning sickness they give me those alcohol wipes to very lightly wave under my nose to help with the morning sickness and it worked so well I bought a box. That was 18 yrs ago and I still use that trick if I get an upset tummy. : 0 peace and once again Congratulations to the both of you.

[@williamlilliott2433]

Truly excellent photography and editing. I don't think you know how professional you all have gotten. Sorry Kazza was sick and missed her beloved turtles. She did manage to rally for cake though. Great girl. Brian is one of the best skippers around. He sincerely cares for his crew and they turn two for him as well. You all really are quite the best, as a group and individually.

[@pidginmac]

Awesome when Cap Bry grabs the cam! Feel better soon C.

[@ulyssespenelope44]

The Arnold references had me in stitches! Haha! Great episode and HBD Jordan!

[@BS-nt9oc]

You mean PREGNANT! probably too soon but its a fun story. I love You guys sooo much. Stay healthy, adventurous and sharing.

[@yorukkizigeziyor]

[@joeljazwiecki3864]

Knocked it out of the park guys! Great episode, would love the recipe for the Sweet Chicken. Good tease with Pokeman crashing into the bridge. Thanks for all the hard work that goes into these videos so we can see into your daily lives, Your videos are really well done and I can see all the hard work that you guys put into them. thank you 🍻

[@sailingcaretta7208]

Happy Birthday underwater! Awesome!

[@GamalDahab]

H.b/day Jordan ....... love you all

[@garygerard4290]

so many of the places you show yourselves walking through the islands/towns are so clean! I'm in America and we have trash blowing across the streets and parking lots 'Editing Dept. gets an A+

[@nickhanson4198]

thanks for another episode DELOS... MUCH LOVE SAFE TRAVELS! Appreciate the hard work and dedication.

[@bru864]

You made those little blue fish swim backwards didn’t ya? It was cool, crap no more bong loads for me. Keep up the beautiful videos, Jordan your a doll.

[@l4rrikin]

Viviendo en grande!

[@anitahardesty2163]

Another amazing video!! Thank you! Happy birthday Jordan!!

[@amyalvarado3762]

Happy birthday! You are living my dream. I love watching you guys have so much much fun, love your little educational bits too💚

[@thisisconstruction.]

I have never seen such an amazing group.. I can only wish I experience such one day!!

[@moz1953]

i think it only right to declare that it's Friday morning in Manchester, UK and i'm watching my beloved Delossians with a cup of coffee in one hand and a beautifully rolled spliff in the other - with you in spirit guys

[@2Qwk2C]

I love waking up to Blue waking up first thing on a Delos vid. Awesome!!! So sorry to see you looking so sick Kazza. Hope you're way over it now. Lisssa and Brian, very nice editing and your drone and underwater photography is excellent as per usual. Happy Birthday Jordan, looks like it was a brilliant one. Thanks for a "you beaut" vid.........Cheers :)

[@donna8212]

Glad you’re feeling better Kazza! Happy birthday Jordan! I think Pokémon would be a good addition to the crew 😉.

[@avatarjo1]

Happy Birthday Jordan looks like you had a great day. Awesome underwater footage. Thank you.

[@maureendodd3402]

We first visited Happy Island in 2005, they were installing their first toilet....cool to see how much its evolved! What a dream birthday celebration in Tabago Cays! I hope you guys stopped in on Mayreau when you there. Cheers Mates!

[@vincelouden1339]

28:39 Sea turtle came up to say "hi" to Delos. I vote for Pokemon on Delos!! Kool guy he is!! Much Respect!! Thanks for the rad videos!!

[@MarkVikingstad]

This was a fantastic episode. Always a bright spot on a Friday. Thanks for the videos Delos!

[@gabrieldsailing108]

Happy Birthday There was my Birthday too today God Bless you all too lots of Health, Joy, Love, Prosperity Good Winds

[@danmeehan1390]

Another outstanding video, a nice contrast to the pouring rain we have in Ontario, Canada today! Happy Birthday Jordan!!

[@Smarterthanyou-mthrfkr]

The Amazing tribe!

[@billweilbacher7423]

Great episode! Honestly, the editing (including the sound editing) has gotten so damn good. I'm constantly struck by it. The scuba footage with the breathing audio seems obvious and easy, but in listening (and having been diving for the past 35 years) I was immediately struck by how well that sound was captured. Attention to detail on the little things makes all the difference in the experience for the viewer. Well done. ... BTW, HBD Jordan!

[@lisahopf5384]

thank you bill for your compliment! i had so much fun putting the underwater footage together!

[@ShaschaZolochevskaya]

@@lisahopf5384 Lisa you did good job crept going this please!!

[@pssita]

Best birthday ever!

[@highvibe4839]

Oh yeah, Pokémon for Delos crew, the universe as sent him too you! And his dream is to sail, no brainer!

[@fifich6953]

Always the best👏⛵💞🌼🌸🍀

[@keithvanbrunt6721]

Boll Head is a cool watering hole. I was there before Happy island was built.

[@wa4cbg]

Great work... four stars for content, photography and editing... and the audio as well! Thank you so much, really enjoyed the entire episode!

[@highvibe4839]

Well done Brady, I was one that commented on your weight - too much of the good life, and not enough activity, I also live on a cat and I’m surprised with all my activity of boating life, my dog Sailor & I have both put on a kilo over four months. I was shocked, so good achievement loosing it! It’s now my turn! Lol

[@artlinnik]

You guys have really outdone yourselves with this one. What a great episode and a great setting too!
