MULEGE'S BAY OF CONCEPTION - APRIL 15, 2010
A trip to Mulege would not be complete without at least a day or two on the beaches of Conception Bay.
Without a doubt the prettiest bay in Baja.
When I took these photos yesterday, April 15, 2010, all the beaches were fairly deserted..tons of room for campers.

playas on Conception, tho.

Thanks for the photos. I love this thread. I haven't a clue how to drive to your casa when we drive down to Loreto & Nopolo & Cabo.

Hola Phil S,
The BOC beaches are at their busiest from December until April. February and March will see a brisk camping business on most easy-access beaches.
As you can see, it is almost vacant here now. Why? Because Spring is not just for Baja...It's bursting out all over! Most perennials leave for
their places Up North to enjoy their own beautiful season. From now until October we will see many European campers, who seem to enjoy the heat a
little more than most norteamericanos, plus they are usually of a younger generation and more basic-style campers.
Hope to see you in November on your way south. Safe journeys, amigo.

Thanks Pompano! The bay is looking as pristine as ever. The wife is in La Paz about a permanent position today. Looks like we should be moving soon.
San Bruno and the bay will be my first two stops on the way south with my boat. Please keep the great pics coming, they are great motivators!!

Yes, Mike.. I noticed that phenomenon myself early last Saturday morning. I wondered about it briefly....and then had to go fishing. I don't see it
out there anymore.

Mulege's Starbucks
A new find (for me anyway)..a good cup of coffee and some killer brownies at this shop across from the water store downtown Mulege.

Mornin' Pompano! The skiff in the 2nd photo, the one with the motor, is a lot like my "Sancha". I plan on taking that and a 19cc to La Paz with me. I
plan on leaving the cc in La Paz at home, and using the skiff for easy towing and exploring between Santa Rosalia and the East Cape. On most days will
the skiff work for inshore BCS fishing? Easy on gas, easy to beach launch, and very fast on relatively calm water with the Suzuki 40 on the back.

We were at Santispac for a couple of weeks late last month.
Warm but not hot days.
Cool but not cold nights.
Crystal clear, warm water.
Gentle breezes.
Few other campers, but not empty.
Hot tamale morning room service.
Fresh fish, shrimp, and lobster afternoon room service.
Many opportunities to increase the t-shirt supply. Friendly vendors.
Plenty of time to spend lounging around in the reading room:

Piece of cake with your Sancha, bajabass. The SOC is no worse than a big lake most of the time, just use your usual common sense. Years ago, I
trailered and fished most of it with a 16ft Lund aluminum skiff w/40HP tiller Johnson and had no major problems..just windbound a few times. With
your trouble-free Susie, you'll have no problems. Have fun out there!

Thanks for a great adventure with your pics and comments. Thoroughly enjoying this thread. Just spent 6 weeks in PC, and of course, a fair amount of
time in Mulege. Was there for this year's chili cook off and had a blast. Been to a several of the places you show, but far from all of them. Can't
wait to get back down and experience more.

ALEX...a favorite fishing guide & barkeeper.
Alejandro/Alex...one of Mulege's finest fishing guides..(and most humorous I might add)....
.
... plus the manager, bartender, floorsweeper of the Mezquite Bar in downtown Mulege.
El Mezquite Bar..a good place to talk fishing while quenching your thirst.
