Bahia Dulce, Mexico

Posted 13 January 2011

It is hot, hot !! We have all the fans going and only moderate relieve. We have an extra fan that Dinis wants to put in our V-berth. That will definitely be great. Our sail from Acapulco was great, beam reach half of the way before the wind dropped. Bahia Dulce is a bay just north of Acamama Point. This bay reminded us of Isabela Island, lots of birds and fish. There is a small fishing village onshore. We dropped anchor around 5 pm local time on Wednesday 12 January. The anchorage was protected from the north, west and east winds, but we still had a small swell from the ocean with us, which caused a rolly night's sleep. We left on Thursday morning for our overnight trip to Escondido and was amaze, the bay had hundreds of turtles. What beautiful animals, you notice them by the sun that shines off their shell. We manage to video record a turtle which gave a seagull a ride on his shell. The bird flew away when we came closer.
