We arrived in La Paz on Friday evening (1/14) @ 1630 (4:30 PM) with no marina reservations (note: below is the story about “the free ride” from San Carlos to La Paz). Our first choice was Marina de La Paz – centrally located to downtown, great docks, and great services (showers with enough hot water, laundry, Wi-Fi and their own desalination plant to provide potable water for harbor guests).
Getting a slip at Marina de La Paz was a long shot but, hey, ya gotta at least ask. So, as we neared the channel entrance I called the harbor office on the cell phone. We couldn’t believe it, there was one last slip available! And even better, we arrived just in time to join the cruiser dock party just 2 boats down from us! Could life get better than this???
Oh, note the big yacht in the background “Tully”. It’s owned by Carlos Slim, the wealthiest person in the world. Great neighbors here! The brochure could never have promised this!
