10 January 2023 – We fetched Puerto Los Gatos yesterday from Bahia Agua Verde.

Just before arriving we saw perhaps eight to 10 whales.

Puerto Los Gatos is a lovely anchorage embraced inside the two arms of a reef with protection from both north and south winds. Because of the reefs, Jimena did not favor getting into this anchorage when we came north before, but she loves it now.

Today we took the dinghy ashore and hiked around on the red rock formations and the beaches. In the evening we sat on the bow and watched whales out in the channel about a mile in front of the entrance to Puerto Los Gatos. A spectacular show all around and we wish we could stay longer.
