After a full day of driving along beautiful windy mountain roads down to the coast from Oaxaca, we pulled into the small beach town of Puerta Arista, about 3 hours north of the Guatemala border. We headed straight to the turtle ‘camp’ that I had read about before they closed for the evening.

We spent about 5 days camping on the north coast of Peru on a gorgeous sandy beach. This is the last location where we will find relatively warm ocean on this trip. Further south there is a different ocean current that prevails, yielding much colder water temperatures.
