ASTILLERO

Astillero is a fishing village just north of us.

Our friends Rose and Joel showed up last week and stayed next door at the Toro Hotel. They treated us with a day trip up the coast to the sleepy fishing pueblo of Astillero. We hiked around the point at the north end of the bay there to catch some surf but alas, the tide wasn’t right. So Lance’s Left will have to wait for another day. On our way back to Popoyo we stopped at a secluded nature lodge called Punta Teonoste. Place reminded us of Kona Village. South Pacific open Fale’ style with separate beach cottages. Awesome very private secluded white sand beach. A little spendy for this area (cottages start at $ 193.00 a nite). So we just had a drink at the bar and traveled on.
