Day 32: Finale, Las Islas

A great idea by Dana made for a fine day. She booked a day trip to Isla Contoy with Scuba Cancun. Betty (bless her heart) drove us to the dock and we boarded a good sized boat, along with about 15 others, mostly Mexicans. We first stopped at Isla Muheres for about an hour...


which I used to buy a disposable underwater camera.

We then sailed to a reef near Isla Contoy with pretty clear water, great coral...









and beautiful fish.









We went on to Isla Contoy, which is a national park.


There was a rookery of frigate birds...


and some were mating (big orange ballon under the bill)...


We had a fantastic fresh barbecued fish lunch and got in some end-of-vacation relaxation time on the powdery white beach.




On the way back to Cancun, the sky filled with spectacular squalls, all of which missed us, but for a few raindrops.



Outta here tomorrow. Hasta luego.
