Few sights can raise your heart rate as quickly as a 'blow' out to sea. Better still if it's seen from a kayak. The Sea of Cortez is home to a growing number of whales every year, which come to calve, mate and socialize. Back at the beach, large red crabs with curious stripes scamper across the rocks. On a positive note, it means that there are no long kayak carries in the morning when the tide is out, nor the worry that a high tide might float one off in the dark.
Tomorrow is our last day.
Pacifico beer and tequila are the order of the evening. There are scorpions in the driftwood for the fire, but no one seems to mind. They scuttle away across the sand into the dark. Out in the bay, the lights of a ferry pass slowly, bound for the Mexican mainland. Bottled water in plastic jugs can be bought cheaply at the CCC Supermarket in La Paz.
