At high tide with a full moon the runway is submerged.

may open in early 2010 or maybe not.  Sr. Rodrigues has BIG plans.

  
Ken's Million-Dollar view at Gonzaga Bay

  
Ken's Place - located between Rancho Grande and Punta Final -
about 75 miles south of San Felipe

      
This SALT lake, located a few miles from Punta Final, is not connected to the sea and 
continued evaporation has dramatically increased the salinity level.  You might shrivel up
from from the high salt content, but it would be tough to drown.
