A Day at the Beach

My friend, Lety, said this morning, "We haven't spent a day at the beach yet. You can't go home without being at the beach. Let's go to Punta de Mita today." What a great idea! Sunny, warm, light breeze, temperature in the mid-80s, what better day to go to the beach?

One of her favorite beaches is in Punta de Mita, Nayarit, about 30 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta. There is a beachfront restaurant there that she likes, so off we went.




The Anclote Restaurant has dining inside and out. We chose to sit outside on the beach for our tequila sunrise but went inside to the tables for our dinner.

Here is the beach and today there was seaweed all along the edge of the water.

Kids playing in the water.

Building sand castles.

Relaxing under the palapa. Can you see the people dining inside the restaurant on the right side?

Music time!

He caught "the big one"!

And we ate it! This is fish zarandeado, a way of preparing the fish. it is delicious!

Buying ice cream on the beach.

We had a very enjoyable day reading, people-watching and snoozing. Lety even went into the water but I didn't like the seaweed and rocky bottom. I prefer her swimming pool!

Hasta luego.
