Day 8 - Day trip to SantiagoWe woke up with the sun, which we were finding usual and refreshing in this region of the world. Everyone got up early and everyone felt good about it. We left San Pedrito by 8am facing a 2 hour drive across the cape.

There was sun and surf and just about no one else around except for two locals already enjoying the beautiful surf in the calm...
Day 2: San Jose del Cabo – Los CorridorsWe woke up to the sun on the East Cape Road, remote and untamed but absolutely beautiful! But our plans were laid in the other direction, back to San Jose del Cabo and along the road Los Corridors towards Cabo San Lucas. We wound our way back through the hills and went to check the surf back at Playa Costa Azul. It was decent, a little lumpy but surfable,...
