February 24, 2015. Adventures in Bahia de Kino

CAMPGROUND:  Second night at Islandia RV Park

LOCATION: Bahia de Kino, Sonora, Mexico, on NW coast of Mexico, on Sea of Cortez
WEATHER:  Beautiful. Windy. Highs in 70s

This RV park is right on the beach.  Last September, a hurricane ripped out part of its sea wall.

It is the same hurricane that damaged much of Baja California.

We took a nice walk on the beach.  This beach has a lot more shells, and people are out collecting.

The RV park is a but run-down, but has character.

This Airstream is one of the permanent RVs here, with a nice shady palapa. People can live here paying $150/month.  Pretty cheap living!


One of the full-timers, a French guy, gave us a lift into town and dropped us off at a beauty/barber shop.  We both got haircuts.....less than $5.00.  Then we walked around town.  Someone had told us about a beachfront restaurant on the far side of town.   We walked there, on a sandy road.  We had an appetizer for lunch there,  marlin-stuffed chile peppers.  We watched the white caps, as it was very windy.  On our way back, we faced into the wind, and got pelted by the blowing sand.
