Anchored in the JUNGLE then onwards to PANAMA! | Sailing with Six | S2 E20
In this episode we continue our way down the coast of Costa Rica with Minnie and Pa on board.
We stop in at Drake Bay for only a night – a very remote town in the jungle accessed only by boat, plane or 4 wheel drive.
The next morning we have a wonderful sail all the way to Pavones, usually a world class lefthand surf break but the wind we used to sail is washing out any possible surf. Instead we stop so Bella and Finn can have a quick kite surf before anchoring in Jacobs Bay for the night.
Waking up in Jacobs Bay we hear all the jungle sounds chorus together as the sun rises. What a magical moment.
We spend the morning exploring the bay on the dinghy and in at shore, enjoying coconuts, spotting wildlife and generally just being in awe of the dense jungle surrounding us.
Moving a short way into Golfito we go through the checking out process which is very easy compared to Mexico especially with the help of Gabriella at Banana Bay Marina and then we’re off to Panama.
3 days and 2 nights at sea dodging longlines with strobe lights, battling currents through Canal de Afuera and we round Punta Mala beautifully before getting hit with wind against tide as we push on in to the Gulf of Panama.
Next time… our family has a huge day as we go through the Panama Canal!
