Playa Santispac, Day 3

On Friday, October 14, we weren’t feeling much better. This time we didn’t emerge until the early evening. We went to shore and had dinner at Ana’s. The nachos were pretty.

Here is Kosmos framed by one of the camping palapas outside of Ana’s.

It was only in the mid-80s, so after dinner, we decided to take advantage of the “cool” weather to take a walk. We followed the dirt road (which probably required a four-wheel drive) north to the peninsula. We were surprised that the road was lined on both sides with plants.

Here are Eric and Keith approaching the group of houses that we could see from Kosmos.

Up close, it appeared to be three homes within a single walled compound. Also in the compound was a building that looked like it may house a generator, a large garage, a large grass hut, and some other structures.

Opposite the homes, on the side of the peninsula that faced the outer part of Bahia Concepcion, was another campground with palapas at each site.

Here is the view of Bahia Concepcion from the campground

Here is a photo of Eric and Keith walking back to the dinghy, taken near the housing compound. It was a nice view of the road and cove.

While we were onshore, the wind switched direction and picked up. So did the waves. We had a tough time launching the dinghy because the waves kept pushing us back into shore. Fortunately, some campers came and helped us launch. Kosmos was noticeably pitching, making disembarking the dinghy a bit challenging. The forecast was for these winds to last all night and into the morning.
