You push off from the low concrete dock at the Guayama Fishing Club and the town's silhouette slips astern—orange roofs, palm fronds, and the steep rise of the Cordillera Central watching from inland. The 36‑foot sailboat breathes under the USCG captain's commands as the protected waters of Jobos Bay open: mangrove fringes, quiet coves, and the shallow flats that make this one of Puerto Rico's most important estuaries.
