Bahia Agua Verde — another winner

2.10.2013 6:00pm

After exploring the far north of the Sea of Cortez, we are on our way back south. We plan to cover the 300 nm to La Paz in 4 days, and stopped by several anchorages we skipped on the way up. Bahia Agua Verde, another cortez favorite, is high on our list.

We have been riding some good size N swells when we entered Bahia Agua Verde. Although Bahia Agua Verde is a big anchorage, only the very west cove offers protection from N swell. Luckily, there was only one other boat at this west cove and we were able to tuck Gray Matter in. Another sailboat came in right after we anchored and had to leave — Gray Matter took up half the cove.

The stretch between Loreto and La Paz has the most stunning landscape along the Baja Peninsula.

The turquoise water, sandy beaches and beautiful hills at Bahia Agua Verde would never fail to please you eyes.
