The Foreshore covered in rubbish, usual stuff as well as paint tins with used brushes, dead fishing nets, engine oil in plastic bottles etc.. Drove south through villages and rubbish.

Tried to find a spot for lunch in Puenta Sal but all built out no public beach access unless by foot. Drove out to another beach to find out again no access. Further south and in another village; had lunch perched above the beach.

Thought we saw two of the guys from the big yellow bus run down the beach. Drove off the main road through Talara and out to Balcones the western most point of South America (discounting Panama).

At some stage there was some infrastructure here, but the wind and sand had taken their toll. The wind was blowing the sand about. Four dead sea lions on the beach. Camped on the sand and in the wind.
