San Blas is disappearing! Sailing Bohemia Ep.179

We saw recently how San Blas was under threat from plastic pollution, now it's time to show you other big problem manifesting here first: Rising sea levels. With each year that passes, these fragile sandbar islands, often no more than a foot above the water, are washed away and simply disappear. We saw this change first hand with one of our favourite islands, in the year which we have been visiting the area. It's alarming how quickly the change is taking place. Also in this episode, an amazing visit from five curious eagle rays, and the arrival of our fun new guests, Christine and Marsha!

Peter and Tom are gay sailors who learned to sail relatively recently in the San Francisco Bay, before casting off the lines to cruise Mexico, Central America and beyond!
