Golfo Dulce and Its Inhabitants
... I worried that the whole thing would collapse on us. We did get to see a few two plus feet needlefish jumping through the water, but not the thousands as promised. I think the timing of the weather turned most of them back to hold their business until the morning. The quebradas (creeks) on that beach blew out from the huge volume of water coming down and we found ourselves surrounded by chocolate milk colored water. This was adventure enough, ...
