The scenery off the coast of Baja Mexico has been absolutely unmatched—golden sunsets, calm waters, and sea life greeting us at every anchorage. Soaking in my second-to-last week in the place “where the desert meets the sea”, before heading across the Pacific to spend time with family.

Our final leg north before we begin heading south again. The cliffs were absolutely stunning, and I’m looking forward to catching the sunrise tomorrow!

We left La Paz and spent a few days anchored off Isla San Francisco. It’s been a warm week—temperatures hit 35°C (around 94°F) on a couple of days. Thankfully, when we got back, we made the most of a rare afternoon off with a much-needed swim. We also celebrated my 26th birthday aboard!! 🎂 🎉 🎈

Crew dive day around Isla Espíritu Santo! We swam with tons of sea lions—one especially friendly one couldn’t get enough cuddles. Our second dive took us to Fang Ming, a Chinese cargo ship intentionally sunk in 1999 to create an artificial reef. An incredible wreck dive just off the island’s coast!

Back on the mainland after a smooth week-long crossing from the Galápagos to Mexico. Great weather, calm seas, and good company from whales and frigate birds along the way.

Just got back from about 16 days cruising around the Galápagos—and it was nonstop magic. Every day brought a new island, with early morning anchor pickups and plenty of night crossings that kept the deck busy. We hiked across otherworldly lava fields, snorkeled with sea lions, spotted lava lizards, and even swam alongside Galápagos penguins. One unforgettable night, over 70 sharks circled the boat—just casually hanging out like it was no big deal. We were lucky to have two amazing guides (thank you Paola and Yvonne!) who brought us to hidden gems and shared so many cool facts and stories along the way. Wild, busy, and absolutely incredible from start to finish.

Another X! Equator crossing can be checked off the bucket list. We had a great 3 day cruise south to the Galapagos. Lots of rain, birds, dolphins and pilot whales. Polywog no more!

Another overnight journey. 7 hour bridge watch. Stopped at an Catalina for the afternoon for a snorkel. Weather picked up and we decided to drive the tender back instead of putting it in the garage. Fun, salty time!

Another overnighter. 7 hour bridge watch. Incredible moon and stars but the photos just don't do it justice. Once we started heading due south, the weather improved a lot. Just a small breeze and soft rollers.

Overnight trip. Cruised slowly at 8-9k overnight to a new anchorage. Gps lost its way a couple of times. On bridge watch from 2200-0500.

Day off fun! Next time, next level up 🤩

What an experience!

After almost three months in the Caribbean, we are moving onward to the pacific! Arrived in Panama this morning and will be crossing through during the next few days ⚓️
