Naranjos and Playa Frambes
well....Les asked if I wanted to explore Naranjos quickly on our way home from Loreto yesterday .... goes without saying that the answer was
affirmative.
I was very surprised when suddenly there was a sign for PLAYA FRAMBES ! Hey, those are bajanomaders, I said, and we turned a quick left and we found
Sue, who showed us around .... Bob was not there, maybe next time !
the views from the lighhouse are nothing short of spectacular:
look to the right
look to the left
after playa frambes (BTW the rate is %160 a night), we went down the beach a ways and hit naranjos ... these are 30 cottages which are scattered along
the beach and back - they are VERY RUSTIC but have beds and kitchens and baths for $20 a night:
Naranjos was spotlessly clean, not a bit of trash or plastic or paper anywhere !

After 2 days you include a boat ?!! Wow....that sounds awesome.
The premises were spotless, as you can tell by the pics.
I forewarn that you have to (obviously) climb a lot of very narrow stairs to reach the top of the lighthouse - first floor is bathroom. up a flight of
stairs and there is a bed. up another flight of stairs and I think this is where you reach the top with the muy spectacular views!

2009 vacation, there:

No shortage of love (or Pacificos), poolside!

Woody, if you're in the San Diego area, you could easily make Bob's place in one day. It's about 80 miles north of Loreto. So, about 650 miles, a long
day, but doable.

old haunts.....

Well for two of the nights anyway... other nights at Loreto, Playa la Perla, El Rosario: http://vivabaja.com/709
Woody, Bob & Susan's is 2 hours north of Loreto and very near Mulege on Bahia Concepcion.
