I had the pleasure of another trip east to the beaches the first days of this new year. My friend 'Mono', his son Emilio and I visited a friend's small beach cabin in Punta Rubia. This is a tiny (developing) town, just passed La Pedreda, which is just passing La Paloma. A long ways out, but worth the trip. Claudia's "ranchito" was a little rough but homey. The beach is wild and nearly deserted. I had one of the best swims I can remember. The water was the perfect temperature, the waves strong, but not overwhelming and NO ONE around. It was divine.
We also got a chance to check out La Pedreda and man is it a scene. The main drag is full of shops and restaurants. I'm told it's one of the hottest beaches now. Loads of people, tons of beautiful girls (and guys). A bit much for me, but it was nice to hang a while. We have a friend with a house there. He's been a life guard in La Pe for many years and can still handle that surf. The beach has strong waves, rocks and wicked rip-tide that pulls out probably two people each day. Chero really earns his pay. We had a nice visit to his guest cabin, the main house is rented out. We made pizzas on the fire. It was great.
That's wife Mariajose tending to the pizzas with a headband flashlight. Chero is just behind his son Nacho.
