The Sea of Cortez is very big and it looks bigger from the hilltops around it. In this photo, we are looking north into the anchorage of Puerto Don Juan. In the left foreground is a narrow rocky ridge that connects the hill in front of us to the Baja. (There is question as to whether this ridge is natural or was built to attach the island to the peninsula. Or could it be a combination of the two: naturally low land, exposed at low tide, added to by nature AND people to solidify the connection?). Beyond the anchorage, Islas Cabeza de Caballo, Ventana, and Coronado line up, stepwise to the north. Out of sight are Los Gemelos (to our left) and Isla Angel de la Guarda (to the right).
