We took a boat today from Puerto Lopez out to Isla Salango. It was raining in the morning, as it was the night before, and we left the hotel with little hope. Puerto Lopez is dirtier than Montañita. They drive mototaxis around the bay and beach to avoid the garbage on the beach. A modern take on the rickshaw.
As the day passed, the clouds broke, the rain moved up shore and left us a delightful day. Sport fishing, snorkeling, sunning on the roof of the boat...now, that´s life! We all got sunburned but enjoyed every minute of it. We must have seen 30 different species of fish snorkeling, but didn´t catch any! Sting rays, schools of neon blue fish whose scales reflect the sunlight, dark blue ones, light blue ones, pale blue ones with yellow lips, stripes, dots, fish with teeth, a violet starfish suctioned to the coral...magnificent!

Good thing you decided to leave your gold sequined bathing suite at home. You would have been fish bait!!
