Honeymoon Cove



What a lovely spot! A tiny rock-lined cove on Isla Danzante, deep at the entrance then gradually shoaling. There's not a lot of room to swing around on the anchor, so we set a stern anchor in about 5 feet of water and our bow anchor 20 feet deep. Twenty knot winds came up in the night, but we rode them out easily. The rocks along shore provided excellent snorkeling and half-a-dozen porpoises entertained us with their leaping, diving, and tail-slapping antics. The eco-tour ship, National Geographic Seabird, anchored farther out in deep water and shared the entertainment with us.
