We had the opportunity to explore two beautiful Islands today, Isla San Jose and Isla San Francisco.  This morning at Isla San Jose we walked in the cool shade of a deep cut arroyo.  Palo blanco, ironwood and palo verde trees all provided more refuge from the sun.  In contrast our Island for the afternoon, Isla San Francisco is windswept with vegetation predominately at knee height.  The wide arc of beach was the perfect platform for activities of kayaking, paddle boarding and beachcombing and tide pooling.  Snorkelers enjoyed the waters along a rocky cliff where many colorful fish were observed.
