Paddling at Espiritu Santu and Danzante Islands

.
Saturday, March 10  Kayaking to island 25 miles

Today was perfectly calm, so I decided to paddle again to Espiritu Santu Island.  I hoped to go further than I had before, and perhaps go all the way around it, which would probably take two days.  To give myself that option, I packed plenty of water and food, but took only the bare minimum for camping—no tent, sunshade, or cooking gear.  I learned my lesson from the previous trip, about taking too much cumbersome gear.  Still, packing took some time, so I didn’t leave till about 10:45 am.


I made good time across to the island, then continued along the east coast.
