Puerto Balandra- Bahia San Gabriel Dec 5th, 2009


We left La Paz and off we went to Puerto Balandra. The wind was blowing from the north at about 10-13 knots, but there is little swell just chop as we made our way. We looked over the anchorage and decided it was to open to the north and we would have a very rolly night if we anchored. So we took pictures and made our way to Bahia San Gabriel on Isla Epiritu Santo. The bay here is a little more protected and so after three hours and 21 n. miles we anchored. I caught Sand Bass from the back of the boat so we had fresh fish for dinner. We took the dinghy and explored the shore and the lagoon where it seemed to be a Magnificent Frigate rookery. The night was noisy with the splash of the roll off the swim platform so we decided to head to our next location, Caleta Partida

The sea of Cortez just begins in La Paz. It gets better and better as you get to know it.
