Ivo and Dajana aboard Silkap explore two isolated fishing villages on the Baja California coast of the Sea of Cortez: San Evaristo and Agua Verde. San Evaristo receives most of its supplies by boat; its main industries are fishing and salt harvesting, and the crew visits the salt flats on a dry, dusty road.0:30 The village has no natural freshwater and relies on a solar-powered desalination plant.3:13 A small grocery store stocks eggs, chicken, tortillas, and basic produce.2:51 A beached, landlocked wreck sits visibly ashore.1:52 At Agua Verde, rated by the crew as one of their favorite anchorages in the Sea of Cortez, the bay offers good protection from north winds, with an alternative anchorage on the opposite side during southerly-dominant months.5:19 Dajana scrubs heavy algae and growth from Silkap's hull in cold water.6:23 Fishermen work the anchorage daily, using sardines as bait for grouper and tuna; a single panga returns full of grouper destined for La Paz.9:20 The village has two beach restaurants, a small store, and a family making fresh wheat tortillas by machine.11:00 Californians frequently drive RVs to Agua Verde, and a neighboring crew on a 22-foot boat departs under tow back to California.7:15 Hiking a nearby hill gives a panoramic view of the anchorage and surrounding islands.8:02
