Photos - Day Trip - Loreto area: Nopolo, Puerto Escondido


Just some photos from 2 days ago. Nice day trip to places we haven't been in some time.

Golf course and adjoining development

This reminds me....I have a full set of golf clubs for sale...cheap.
.
Vista Al Mar Cafe

Going south, we stopped at this roadside beach cafe for lemonades, chips, & salsa. Sorry, no menu report, the place looked to be busy with beverage & food orders.
.
Scenic viewpoint

The overlook turnoff is always a nice stop for a great view and photo op.
.

Another place that has grown up in the ensueing years. We camped here when there was just us a couple of palm trees.
.
Turnoff to Tripui & Puerto Escondido

Turn off from the main highway into Puerto Escondido and Tripui development.

.
Tripui

I hadn't been into Tripui since before the 2004 fire. Quite a change with many nice homes.

Puerto Escondido






Puerto Escondido has changed immenseley since our last visit. Back then there was just the highway, that striped pier, and nothing else. Back in the day, we used to catch yellowtail, cabrilla, even some dorado in season right from that pier. Lots of folks pier-fishingt then.

A real yacht basin now with full amenities, including lots of dry storage.





I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

The small restaurant before Juncalito is where I had my first taste of Pulpo. I've been enjoying it ever since. I'll be down in Nopolo next thursday for a quick trip. Heard its been windy. Hopefully get some yellows on the surface w/ some early dodos.
