La Paz to Santa Rosalia

As of June 18 we have been in Santa Rosalia since the 9th. We will probably push off from here on Monday or so and head back south about 50 miles to spend some time in Bahia Concepcion.

We had a relatively quick and very easy run of eight days to make a 224 nautical mile trip from La Paz to Santa Rosalia, where we have met up with our friends Ted & Brenda on Firefly (we last saw them in Mazatlan in mid-April) and several other boat people we have met on the Baja Haha.

San Juanico at dusk.

We spent two nights in the coastal bay of San Juanico (about 150 miles north of La Paz) with about ten other boats. We had a nice shell-picking walk and met several cruisers we knew at an impromptu beach party and bonfire one evening.

Lagoon ashore at San Juanico. Dramatic rocks in this bay.

The two cruising kids who were in this anchorage did a great job of gathering firewood and roasting marshmallows. This is a nice pretty and quiet spot. so we’ll go back to for some future loafing.

Happy hour on the beach.
