Exploring Bahía de Los Muertos

Exploring Bahía de Los Muertos

March 7 to March 12, 2018

We did an overnight passage from Los Frailes to another beautiful bay called Los Muertos.  We left around 5 pm  to sail through the night and arrive in the bay after daybreak.  It was a very pleasant sail with sufficient winds, a beautiful sunset and evening skies. The following photos are from the evening sail.  As you can see, it was very dramatic.

  

Eventually the morning arrived and as we approached Los Muertos, the rugged coastline became more apparent.  The contrast between desert and water is striking.

Dan keeps a watchful eye as we approach the anchorage.

Once we were anchored, we were blessed with another fabulous sunset.

The following morning, I woke up to a nice sunrise and our neighbors were taking off for La Paz.

Dan and I took the dinghy to shore and enjoyed a walk up one of the hillsides where we saw these wonderful views.  

We enjoyed out hike so much, that we extended it to another cove.  By then I was so hot, I just had to jump into the water to cool off.

There were many stunning looking cactus.

We decided to take the SUP boards out several times while in this beautiful bay.  The water is so clear one can see 25 ft below.  When we were close to shore, we paddled over some reefs where we could see live coral, fish and more.  It was very cool.

We really enjoyed out 5 days at this bay.  There was a restaurant where we ate out a few times.  The WIFI was not that good there, so it was rather frustrating trying to get blog out.  So here it is, a few days late.
