Bahia de Caraquez sits on the tip of a peninsula which shelters a deep bay and estuary. The calm waters of the bay offers a perfect mooring spot for gringo yachts and sail boats. In fact, we later met a couple from Vancouver, B.C. who were visiting Cuenca, and they had their sail boat moored there.
1) View of the city from across the bay
2) At low tide the teenagers come out and play soccer until the sun goes down
3) Talk about "junk in the trunk"! From our hotel room we observed this scene...the whole family spent the afternoon romping in the surf, mostly clothed. Mom & dad got in the car wet and sandy but made the kids get in the trunk and they drove off!
4) Grey in the breakfast room of our hotel
5) The water taxi used to cross the bay- everyone gets a life jacket. It costs 30 cents and takes about 10 minutes. There's also a car ferry.
