Punta Santo Domingo?


15 or so miles N of Pequena...anyone ever been there? Almanac shows no roads but GoogleEarth disagrees (somewhat).

Always been curious.

I was there last July and it is nice. The road is best from south of Jesus Maria, it's not hard to find. The other way is to start from town and head for the mountain top.

Got out there about 15 years ago on my old Honda XL350. Took the trail that followed Arroyo San Raymundo west from Rcho La Ballena. It was quite rough, but of course I was only in my 50's back then, now might be another story.

Different Santo Domingo, He's referring to the one a little north of San Juanico.

The new Almanac shows a trail from La Ballena to the ocean half way between Punta Santo Domingo and Estero San Raymundo.

So you were able to cross the arroyos heading N from San Juanico w/o backtracking to main road?

Drove on the main road from San Juanico to Cadeje (there is a military checkpoint just south of Cadeje), then from Cadeje west north westerly on the main road to just beyond the arroyo crossing of San Raymundo, then turn west off the main road (the last hurricane took out most of Rancho La Ballena althouogh there is still an inhabited Rancho west of the arroyo on the south side). The distance on the main road is 15.5 miles from San Juanico from to the turn off. Another 8.1 miles from the main road to where we walked off the cliffs down to fish. I have some photos if you want me to email them to you. b1
