The harbor’s bustle dissolves as the boat slips past polished yachts and colorful pangas, heading where granite cliffs meet open Pacific. Wind scrapes across the water and Land’s End—the Arch—comes into view, a sculpted gateway where waves carve constant motion and a colony of sea lions barks from sun-warmed rocks.
