Our previous stops reflected the rugged remoteness of the Baja Coast. Not so Cabo. The appearance of a Mickey Mouse eared cruise ship as we approached the bay foretold of the shock that we would experience in our return to civilization. Overnight we had nothing but the twinkling of our co-traveller’s running lights to accompany us, but suddenly we were surrounded by water taxis, tourist boats, big game fishing boats and swarms of jet skis.
We refueled waiting to see whether we would be given a slip for the evening, as late entries to the HaHa, this was unlikely, especially since there was a big money sport-fishing tournament going on there were many boats (and a few mega yachts) in town. We had to return to the anchorage for a while and prepared to go ashore in the dinghy, but just as we’re about to jump in, we heard that Aphrodite had got a slip (or at least a share of one). Ashore we were gently accosted by street peddlers selling silver trinkets and small wooden toys.
In the evening after a break for some food, we joined most of the rest of the HaHa fleet at “El Squid Roe” which is zanier than it sounds, but a good time was had by all!

If you’re in Cabo and need some bread, this is the place to go. Marcus bakes a variety of breads from around the world and does it properly. San Francisco sourdough, Italian focaccia, New York rye, German pretzels and French baguette are a few of the fine things he has on offer.
