The road to Shangri-La is supposed to be an ephemeral thing, a mystical path to a hidden valley where beauty and peace prevail. But in the lagoon of Barra de Potosi, through a shallow path in the mangroves, and over a twisty, two-lane cow pat we discover the cliffs of Guamilule, the local mountain. The cliffs rise to the east from the turquoise pacific, keeping any signs of the modern world at bay.There, is a breathtaking untouched beach, with gigantic rolling waves. We surprise two wild, untied horses who roam leisurly on the beach among hermit crabs and tortugas.
