We left La Paz intending to spend 4 or 5 days getting to La Paz. The first day we sailed about 45 miles from Escondido to Agua Verde. This is a beautiful anchorage and we were able to anchor off the south bay as the wind was light Southerly. There was a large group of kayakers on the beach. They were on a month long trip from Escondido to La Paz. I talked with the guide for a while and he said the group were relatively inexperienced and were only making 8 miles a day but were planning to pick it up a bit. They practiced capsize recovery for a while before retreating under some shade for te afternoon. I did a fairly long kayak exploration and Susan did some snorkling just before sundown. We also had a school,pod, whatever of Mobua Rays feeding right by the boat for about an hour.
In the morning we got an early start and the winds were fair so we decided to go all the way to Isla San Francisco. We saw a fair amount of sea life, many dolphins, a couple of whales and several jumping manta rays. There were about 14 boats anchored there and Cooper and I went ashore for a while beachcombing and having a water fight. La Paz, started to call to us and the next day we pushed on to La Paz.
