Thanks for sharing, what a great trip report.

Have you done any kayak fishing in the big sandbox?

What an awesome post, and what a beautiful country.

Refreshing indeed, and a much needed escape from the monotony of the office.
Thank you for posting this. The pics are fantastic.
So glad you had such an awesome trip.

I recently saw a show on TV (ESPN or one of those channels) that was covering the world high dive competition.
I think the competitors were diving from the top of Belem Tower and doing flips and summersaults etc.
Of course the competition was taking place at high tide, but what a long drop!!
Those dudes definitely have some serious huevos for doing that!

Cheers!

I've done some boat fishing in the Red Sea, it was pretty rad. Lots of big game here, I caught a nice Jack Trevell on one trip that thing was like a YT on crack. I'm gonna go again at some point, I'll post some pics of it. Great diving here too, visibility has gotta be 100ft most days. Plus you can wear shorts and a t-shirt at 60ft and still be warm
