SPORT FISHING - Depending on the time of year (best time is Sept.-Dec.) , La Bocana has some of the best fishing in the world. Yellowtail, grouper, wahoo and dorado ! If you need a boat, please let Les know. $250 in the new superpanga !
Filleting, vacuum packing and deep freezing is now available for $1 a kilo (2.2 lbs.). Ask for this upon returning to launch area after fishing - the truck will take your fish. If you plan to leave on a Sunday - you must negotiate WHO will open the coop for you beforehand.

SIDETRIPS
WHALE WATCHING
 My sister Maureen !One of the highlights of any trip to Baja is January to March, the season when the California Gray Whales head south to the San Ignacio Lagoon to calve. Guides use small boats called pangas, allowing you to to touch whales.
THE SAN IGNACIO LAGOON San Ignacio, located 1.5 hours south, is an oasis boasting 100,000 date palms lining the river, a church built out of volcanic rock, a local museum and a great plaza.....there is a new hotel LA HUERTA, inexpensive and clean. Follow the road past the mission church. It will be on your right, a little set in off the road. BAHIA ASUNCION
How about a side trip to Bahia Asuncion ? From our house, it is a coastal drive north of about 1.5 hours. Camp with excellent facilities at Campo Sirena while visiting with Shari who is an expert on everything Baja. Shari has a new B&B with spectacular views of the ocean and cliffs.

INDIAN ART CAVE PAINTINGS
Cave Paintings: many locations offer breathtaking views in very remote areas of Baja. The easiest to get to is Cueva del Raton (Cave of the Rat), which can be reached by car easily from La Bocana.
AND MORE:
SURFING - in Punta Abreojos. A huge, long beach, only 10 miles south of us, awaits you with almost NO one else on the waves. Our waves are in January.
