Following our escape from Uyuni the previous day to San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, we caught an overnight bus to Bahia Inglesa. Bahia Inglesa (literally, “English Bay”) is a beach resort located on the Pacific Ocean near the city of Copiapo, Chile. It’s known for seashell-white sands, good surfing, and turquoise blue waters. In the high season, it’s packed with vacationing Chilenos, but we arrived during autumn.
There are few places sleepier than a resort town in off-season and we took full advantage, enjoying a mile of sand and surf almost completely to ourselves. It might even have seemed lonely, but luckily we had a few hunting pelicans to keep us company.
Admittedly, it was a bit colder as a result — only 25° C in the sun; still, we did our best to tough it out. Nothing really exciting happened all day, and I couldn’t have been happier.
