Day 44 - Lopez MendesDespite some advice against our idea, a small band of us (Sandra, Corina, Nic, Kerri & myself) decided to hike to the big beach on the ocean side of the island (Lopez Mendes).
We set off after breakfast walking past the hostel we'd been to the night before. The trail became quite steep and was very slippery thanks to the wet weather. It was nice walking through the lush rain forest. At the top of the first ridge the trees opened out (I think maybe because of a fire) and we caught this view back to Abrao. We could see all the way back to the mainland.
