Position is the OpenStreetMap outline of Playa La Roqueta (way 699712054). S/V Some Tuesday (Feb 2026) anchored about 800 ft off the beach, paddled ashore, paid 200 MXN for an umbrella table and 1,300 MXN (about US$75) for lunch and beers for the group. Roads Less Traveled found the beach bar busy with the Sunday crowd and the anchorage quiet and swell-free by dusk. Water taxis from Caleta cost about US$3.50 (Wikivoyage). Busy afternoons and weekends.
