The "New" Puerto Escondido pics and prices
The new ramp:
Parking:
For the Big Boats:
And all this, and more, at the following great low prices:
So, you can store a 25 footer here, and if you launch 15 days a month, cost is about $1000US per month.
Take your pick of smilies:

Event?
Launch fee is 105 pesos per event.
Does that mean $10 to launch and $10 to pull out?

It's getting to the point where you might as well stay at home and pay the stateside prices. This seems ridiculous!
But ya know what, there will be those who will just suck it up and pay whatever it takes....

I guess it's gonna be Juncalito from now on.
I think there's also a dirt road near the Tripui RV park that leads to the shoreline where a cartopper can launch and even camp for free. We used to
go birding along that road when the winds were too strong but I never followed it all the way to the water's edge.

I have never been able to figure out why people try to make thier lifes income off of a single customer. When they could make 3 life's income, but
lowering the rates, and having 100 times the customers.

They'll learn. Although whenever I drive by I see a mostly empty parking lot with a gatekeeper dozing in the shade. Who makes these decisions?

The Mexican way folks.
You have a little hotel with 5 rooms. It takes $ 50.00 to break even. You have 3 rooms rented at $ 35.00,so you make $ 55.00. Raise it to $ 50.00 a
room and you make $ 100.00. But now you get only 2 rooms rented because of the price increase. So now, to make up for this, you increase the rate to $
75.00 a room, and now you only need to rent 2 rooms and are in hog heaven, right ? But now you don't have any customers
Time to do some headscratching.

Perhaps I am reading this wrong but I don't interpret "per event" to mean in and another charge for out. I could be wrong, If it is merely $10.50 in
and out and $5.00 for parking I don't see where their rates have gone up all that much. I launched there two years ago and the fee was something like
$13.45. That was for in and out and parking. Yes it is now about $2 more but judging by the pictures the facility is significantly improved. I
don't see this as the end of the world and isn't worth getting our panties in a bunch.
Of course $175 a week to store a small boat is a bit out of line but like most things - Supply and Demand. Their storage yard won't do them a bit of
good if it just sits empty so I can envision those prices dropping..

That is a shame then! Thankfully Captain George and I will have the Fidepaz Marina to launch at - $10.00 in and out. (at least for now)

Skipjack Joe...That road ends up at Rattlesnake Cove. Very nice beach with free camping and very well protected from the winter Northerlies.We spent
some winters there camping and kayacking in the mid 70s.Going south from there, there is a real nice section of beach and a couple of roads that go
back to the main road.One of those roads is where they built a road maintence shed for the new highway when it was first contructed and as far as I
know is stilll in use to this day.The beach is very rocky there and if your so inclined ,and have a 4x4, it can be flat enough for lauching a smaller
fish boat.

I bet the overflow parking spills out on to Mex 1. They will probably have to run a shuttle bus because of all the business.
This will fail just like the other issues at Puerto Escondido. You think the people at Tripui are going to pay this each and everytime someone says
the YT or Dorado bite is hot????
I do not think so.
