Morning Walk on the Beach to La Barra

Morning are wonderful here. The perfect time for a walk on the almost empty-of-people beach.

We woke up and had our coffee on the porch while watching the almost full moon make its slow descent. Mornings are cool as the sun has to come up over a mountain. We were able to head down the trail for our first walk together to the beach at around 7:20 a.m. , and it was lovely!

Watching the pelicans diving into the water and the little sanderlings scurrying away from the incoming waves was a treat. In the distance, we could see grey whales flipping and splashing and having a great time. Every time they surfaced, someone would yell out, “There they are!” And we’d check them using our binoculars. Of course, we couldn’t take photos of them.

We walked to a spot, a sandbar, where people were surfing in the ocean on one side and birds were congregating in a fresh water pond on the other side of this sand bar or La Barra. We had taken our binoculars so could see all the wonderful wildlife in the pond. We just took a moment and enjoyed what we were seeing as the sun started to come up.

We walked back to a resort called Majahua Palms and enjoyed a big green smoothie. We had lots to talk about and enjoyed the beautiful views from this resort.

It was definitely a good start to our day in Majahua.Read more
