The gentleman cut off the top of the coconut and we drank the water right from it with a straw.
I had remembered coconut water to be more white and creamy. This was very clear and not very sweet but it was very refreshing, especially after walking for 2 miles in the hot sun.
When we finished drinking the water, the inside of the coconut was chopped up and served.
He asked if we would like salt and lime on it. We did try it and it was very good. Greg tried it with chili sauce/pepper too and he enjoyed it.
While we drank and ate the coconut, we watched surfers.
This is the beach we did a little exploring on. Loved how the sun made such a beautiful shadow of the palm on the sand.
Along the malecon is this university. It's the sciences of the sea.
As we walked back, we saw this mexican man fishing right off the malecon with just a line and a hook. He was just snagging the fish. We hadn't seen fishing done this way down here. If you look close, you can see the hook.
