Bahia Candeleros

May 11-13, 2013

After a day stop at Punta El Carrizalito we arrived at Bahia Candeleros where the only highlight was Mothers day at a resort.  That’s really all there is to say about this anchorage.  OK, I’ll say a little bit more about it… we will be back.  Not to the resort, but to the anchorage.

Daily Notes

    • Mother’s Day!  Day passes at the resort.  Food & drinks included.  Very slow wifi, too much food, and good company (sv Star Passage)

The resort is the only thing in this bay, but it really doesn’t have very good water front views. There is a protected wildlife sanctuary there, so the resort is built behind that. It’s a beautiful resort though with several pools, and if you look down on the pools from one of the rooms on an upper floor you can see they are arranged in the shape of a turtle.

Exodus and Star Passage. The tiny sailboat to the right of Exodus is probably Fluenta’s sailing dinghy. It’s great, the kids can sail it around the anchorage
