Tortuga Bay:

Tortuga Bay:

Today we are going to Tortuga Bay. This involves a panga to a bus, to a 5K walk to a nice bay. 

We made our way on this hot humid walk on a well paved trail. Here we saw several finches, and Lava Lizards. Soon we arrived at the ocean at Playa Brava, and observed several Marine Iguanas as we made our way to Playa Mansa, also seeing Lava gulls and Lava Herons.

As we got to the beach, my camera died and I was getting an error message. UGH so I did not get many Marine Iguana pictures.  

Here we could swim and snorkel and chill on the beach. We then loaded up on a boat to be brought back to the resort. 

Lunch was a great octopus ceviche and a hamburger. 

The afternoon we headed to town to see what we can see. We went to the fish market to see the Sea Lions and Pelicans beg for goodies. 

Next we stopped at a local bar that makes a great lemonade, kinda like a slushy. Perfect for a hot day. 

We next went to the local grocery store and found some Guabaya Jam to take home.  We took a panga back to the resort. 

We changed into swim wear and enjoyed the pool. I then tested my camera after sitting in the cool room. It seemed to work fine, but as it is under warranty will be calling Canon when we get home. 

We had a group dinner and again back to the room for packing as the next day would be a full day of travel.

  1. I hope your camera gets better soon. How frustrating not to have it when you wanted it.
