Leaving Ballena, the seas and winds had finally calmed, so we decided to head out to Isla Catalina.
This remote island is noted for its "rattle-less" rattlesnakes, and for its lack of secure anchorages. We gingerly felt our way into a small cove, moving dead slow, and still nearly clipped a rock with our keel.
We knew we might have to leave in a hurry, and that's just what happened, when fresh winds and waves piped up from the south during the night. However, we first enjoyed a snorkel around "Elephant Rock"
and a dinghy ride out to the SE point, where dolphins cruised along close to shore.
