Time is fast approaching. Soon we'll be fishing, diving, snorkeling, hiking, biking, kayaking, boating, shopping, sightseeing, or just laying around on the beach or by the pool, your choice. Following is some information for you about our trip. If you have any questions feel free to call anytime.
Of course the main reason BCT visits San Carlos is to lend support to the recently formed English Congregation there. To do so those who want to can join them in the ministry and attend some congregation meetings. Doing so is truly a interchange of encouragement! (Romans 1:1, 12)
SATURDAY -
Arrive Tucson Arizona. Check into hotel, rest up,
and get ready for a great San Carlos Ocean
Excursion. For those who have vehicles they are safe
and secure to leave at the hotel at no cost to you.
SUNDAY -
8:00 a.m. Depart Tucson Arizona. Visit historical
sites of the old west like Tubac AZ on the way to
San Carlos. All cross Nogales border together. In
the Sonora Mexico city of Hermosillo where we will
have lunch together. By late-afternoon we will be
checking into our beach side hotel with plenty of time to
relax, wash down the travel dust with a pool side
ice cold drink, then for the evening we have a
special treat...
We take a sunset cruise that lasts till it's good
and dark. Included is free Margaritas, sodas, chips
& Salsa PLUS Mariachi music for the whole 2 hour
cruise, but the real reason for the cruise is to see
the luminaries in the water. Watching certain areas
of the sea water around you literally light up is an
experience of a life time. No way I can explain this
wonderful phenomena.
MONDAY - This is
our day on the boat. It's our sea, sand, cliff, fish
and wildlife encounter. We cruise the Sea of Cortez
as we observe the wide variety of fish, mammals, and
birds found here. If you like, the encounter can be
up close and personal as you snorkel the beautiful
clear water of several bays and coves. Aquarium Cove
is the favorite for snorkeling. Do you like bottom
fishing, trolling, diving, more snorkeling, and
water skiing? Good, then this is your day. Our local
guide knows just the spot for you. Tackle and bait
included. In May we will troll for Dorado
(mahi-mahi), sailfish, ship jack and marlin.
Weather permitting, we will cruise over to see the
famous Seal Island (San Pedro Nolasco) and hear the
hundreds of sea lions that make their home there.
Snorkeling equipment, diving equipment (two tanks),
wet suits, sandwiches and refreshments are included.
