After spending the night in Guerrero Negro I headed out early and continued south now through the Biosphere Reserve El Vizcaino. Soon I was leaving Baja California and entering Baja California Sur. I didn’t stop until I got to Santa Rosalia where I had a quick lunch and then walked around the small town. The heat was already unbearable but the restaurant had good WiFi and air conditioner

I continued south enjoying the blue and green colors of the Sea of Cortez
The next location was one I had had on my bucket list for a very long time. I had read and seen photos from countless other bloggers about El Requeson, a little strip of land that juts out of Baja Sur and connects to a tiny island. The place is as wild as it can be, no bathrooms, no toilets and no place nearby to buy food or anything else. You basically find a spot and setup your tent and that’s what I did in the 100 degree heat
After the tent was up I quickly jumped in the water to cool down and pretty much stayed there until late afternoon. The water was very warm too, similar to what I have experienced in the Clearwater area of Florida. After sunset I walked around the edge of the water and then returned to my tent to eat a sandwich I had bough earlier. Unfortunately it was so hot I couldn’t sit in the tent. I took a long walk and snapped a few pictures from very far away of my tent and a car on the edge of the water
The best part of the visit was waking up to the best sunrise I have experienced in a long time. The sun shining through my tent as the early morning heat started to go up fast
