CROSSING THE TWO BAY, WHITE AND ANEGADA. (Part 1)


(From Monte Hermoso escorted by the PNA)


(wig with local media.)

(The sea made a pool in our day of kayaking to Pehuen Co)

Best to all, we are in Patagonia a few days ago. Buenos Completed Aires. The Monte Hermoso abandon the idea of \u200b\u200bwriting in San Blas but being out of season everywhere complicating the issue online. We have experienced a little of everything. Came the crossing of the bay with many uncertain because the reference search found nothing, only the letters of the prefecture and knowledge of the area. Part of putting to sea ironing and decided to face the intersection of the first bay, the white.

(The wind draws natural beds in the dunes)

The plan was to paddle to pass Pehuen Co Tejada almost at the tip and throw us some 33 miles offshore to reach the island of Trinidad.

(The hiding the sun and beaches in southern Buenos Aires)

Everything I tell you is dependent on the climate in our case was ideal. We started to mess appeared offshore and fishermen boats, they asked "where are they?" Responding, "go to the island" was enough to look at their faces to realize that we were right. We just recommended that we should beware of the port entrance channel that runs down to 10 km / h on the high sea to Bahia Blanca. That is absolutely true, the channel rate was evident but the drift does not affect us much, just a crescent of a few hundred meters. They say it's a weird feeling because the islands are low, with nothing visible at high tide and see less. I do not think we realized that the island was in front of us to be 2 miles. The visibility was not good, but the gps is very helpful and if it says that the island ... the island is there is there! With bad weather better not cross because all references are lost when visibility is bad, whatever we are alert and waypoints.
At all times we heard the explosions of military practices. It went a fighter plane flying a short and rather large warship. In the area there are targets for shooting practice and references in the letters of unexploded ordnance. About
Trinidad? We do not know how far the water because morning from just before the tide came to the door of the tent and got on the kayaks without having to carry a relief.

(Awaiting the arrival of the tide to cross the gutters)

(At low tide the run is long, sometimes 1 km)

The issue is that you grasp the plea at night and the island is completely submerged in the area. If there will stop at Punta Lobos recommend which is the highest part of the island with a community of wolves pretty hairy so I assume that they are dominant males who took a clean sweep the island.

(dominant wolves and young wolves, each one in place)

(wolf look at me as saying: "Dude, here we are, another buoy buscate)

The rest have to settle for sleeping on top of the buoy, and you'll see the photo, 5 or 6 wolves doing nap up there.

so begins the crossing of the first bay. The second stage of the cross leads to the lighthouse El Rincon, 31 miles and a carry of a mile through the mud, a torture. The good thing is that we come to a lighthouse inhabited by people of Naval Hydrography, two friends of the road because we attended the first and upload a lot of fun with the lighthouse and all. About three hundred steps, 65 feet if I remember correctly. The view spectacular.

(With Lighthouse Friends Corner, below the lighthouse is visible from the road is marked on the run.)

Before arriving

the lighthouse The corner is a fairly large dabbling a bit impressed because the waves are everywhere. The streams meet and form quasi-static waves. With the Gypsy decided to cut almost through the middle of foreplay to see if you could run some of those waves. Could not do much, but the kayak is moving and pretty.

To the south of Buenos Aires has become rather common to encounter what I call shock wave, a wave that forms and breaks offshore. They come in series and if you're not careful you are to water.

Then we were already past the first bay just after channel Brightman. Following this came the crossing of the bay Anegada. In the middle you will find the Spa LA CHIQUITA where you can rest, get water, telephone for any emergency. A very quiet place worth visiting. thank

people of the resort and we regret not having been notified earlier to eat a roast.
The last part of southern Patagonia Buenos Aires North, just past the mouth of the Colorado River. Passing the mouth of the Colorado boy reaches the point to address the intersection of the second bay. The recommendations for this second crossing are, go to the islands, or outside.

Do not try to go for the continent because it is something like Samborombón. Outside there are many islands in a straight line you can cross well. To give you an idea is one that has rabbits and other guanacos, another boar, another flamingo, crab, oysters, sheep and other animals. Like before, the conditions for crossing from one island have to be good. The bay is flooded to the top laberitno.

The GPS is essential to be desired time on the island except for He you can stop at any island because there are many who are confused with large sandbanks emerging thanks to the low tide. This whole trip is important.

The first day we hold the lower 1.5 km of the island and were standing in the middle of nowhere. The advantage is that unlike Samborombón banks around the islands are sand and not mud crab, or you can walk.

(Walking the day we stuck at 1.5 km from the beach. In the distance you see the kayaks)

So it was that we walk, we make camp and 6 hours later we pull up the boats when the tide rose. Spent some time sitting in the kayaks sleeping waiting for the water. This cartoon hard from 18 to 24. Take into account the tides, is very important. As the currents are at about 1 knot in the bay. The place is fantastic and gives to many crossings, leaving you to explore so we put together a list of possible places to stop and we have respect for reaching the islands by kayak. If conditions are bad it gets ugly, the waves are great for shallow depth.
With three days is enough to cross.

(San Blas, land of fishermen)

In San Blas, we find the prefecture who attended us first, we had very well with roast included. We talked a long time and gave us an introduction to what's next, the cliffs of Black River. The first thing I asked the manager of the task: "There are whales?" I said yes, that enter the channel in search of wolves and then exit. There are also dolphins, dolphins and to my surprise Franciscan jumping around the boat at the mouth of the river black.

(In the prefecture of San Blas, first! Thanks.)

De San Blas lighthouse went to the 2nd Barranca. This whole area has rough waters colored green tea with milk and not very transparent.

The fishing here is almost assured with large sharks, I could see their jaws hanging in some shops and I was impressed.
The crystal blue water will now Patagonia.

(not ALF, is the wild boar Runi, mascot of the lighthouse)

In the lighthouse again treated us first, we ate a baked sea bass that were special. As if we met in a lifetime, right? because we arrived and 10 minutes and we are drinking mate, pulling stories, jokes, chatting as friends. Are those special things that occur when you travel to the lung. Since
face straight to the lighthouse Balneario El Condor, at the mouth of Black River, but this is a separate story we are living in the moment and the story in part 2.
Diculpen the untidiness but when I have time to think about what is one thing and when I'm in front of the pc I'm giving everything and I lost half of what I have. So we pass
Buenos Aires. No offense to my taste the southern beaches are the prettiest in the province.

De Necochea down there is breathtaking scenery with great beaches and dunes. Sentinel of the Sea, South Sea and surrounding beaches have the best water, deep, transparent, full of life, just where were the whales and penguins.
Claromeco, Reta, Monte Hermoso .... very quiet places to avoid the noise of the city.

The north of Buenos Aires has the best waves! and the sea is moved, the breakers are hard to enter and exit. We went from taking pictures a few days ago near the Black River and recall the landscapes of dunes and lighthouse Querandí tip. Sometimes everything is very similar. At times the landscape has specific things that stand out but there are similarities in most of the province.

(Landscapes repeated south of Buenos Aires)

pollution, as usual. There are many fishing waste, crates, nets, lines and never missing, plastic bottles. Every time before a major city, the beaches are dirty, is an indicator that never fails. We come
seeing the different faces of Argentina but many of those things the reserve to tell me when we get home.
Patagonia is coming, I follow in part 2. Go there ....
Greetings!
