Beating the heat of Mexico…

04/05/2023

We went back to our boat yesterday after a few days renting out an airbnb in Cabo San Lucas but the heat was unbearable for us and ended up booking another place here in San Jose del Cabo..

Decided to leave our little home (boat) for a couple of days for a change of scenery..

The benefits of sailing is now slowly sinking in..

A day’s rest in Marina Puerto Los Cabos before we have to deal with our long list of repairs..

Photos were taken from our 39 hours voyage from Bahia Santa Maria to Puerto Los Cabos.. We barely had wind to push our boat but we surely did enjoy the voyage with these beautiful scenery..

It is quite a humbling experience to explore this very remote and undeveloped piece of land in Mexico. With our very limited Spanish, we were able to interact with a few local fishermen and bought some fish for tonight’s dinner..

I wish I could share with you all the amazing things we saw underway to Bahia Santa Maria to inspire you to go out there and explore. Yesterday alone we saw 3 whales, 2 of them were 50-100 feet from our boat. One of them showed us the fantastic display of its fin which answered my question: why am I here in such a small space and stressing myself out because things keep falling apart or get broken.. Yes, there is a risk aboard a small craft but the benefits and reward is way bigger than the risk itself..

I won’t also deny the fact that sleeping underway is a real problem especially when you have big waves coming to your boat side to side and I may also add all the creaking that the boat makes when it’s moving.. But then again, these are all temporary until you get yo your destination, to these remote places that are merely visited by people because it is either very remote or simply inaccessible by cars or planes..

Here’s some spectacular views we have seen that I would like to share with you from our 32 hours passage yesterday from sunrise to sunset..

Bahia Asuncion.. Ah, so many things have happened in this anchorage.. My patience and critical thinking had been tested.. I was physically, emotionally and mentally challenged.. Sailing lifestyle should have come with a slogan “How far can you go?” Because seriously, I started to wonder!!

Enjoying our last sunset in this quiet anchorage as we are set to depart tomorrow..

After spending 50 hours on the water, we finally made it here at Bahia Tortugas (Turtle Bay) yesterday afternoon. Today was spent exploring the town and trying out the local food scene..

Enjoying my last day in Ensenada, leaving for another 2 days voyage tomorrow..

It was rather interesting to see the sun setting on our starboard side and the full moon on our port..

I’m that person who always takes the scenic route..

Sunrise photos from our departure in San Diego headed to Mexico. I am happy to let you guys know that we arrived safely in full excitement to explore and experience the Mexican culture and of course to continue our voyage South. For now, we will be staying in Ensenada to get some rest.

Ahoy there!!

It was a last minute decision to stop here at Oceanside and I must admit , I am glad that we did. Otherwise, we would have missed these wonderful sights..

Downwind sailing. Spinnaker sail deployed. Surprisingly, we have not seen a single boat for 4 hours until we got to the marina.

Greece, Italy or California ?

I had my adrenaline rush today using my Brompton bike exploring the high ground above the cove. The E-bike on the boat offers us extra freedom and adventure..
