点评:Some misinformation on this thread. First, to get to Polo Beach, go to the SECOND trail after Villa 414. You will see "POLO" spray painted on a tree by the path. There is a mound in front of the path you need to go over (no big deal - particularly on left side by a tree). Do NOT take the first trail - it is not easy and has do not trespass signs.
Follow the trail - it's fairly easy to a white wall. Step on the footing on the right side to go around. Continue to follow the trail to the beach and then continue to Polo's house (some will say shack). The total walk is a bit less than a half mile.
Polo is currently about 80-years-old and has been there since he was 17. He drinks every day, so he may be a little drunk in the late afternoon. He sells cold beer for $2, CoCo-Loco (be careful - one is good for two people) and has lobster and usually fish on the grill until mid-afternoon.
The beach is amazing - locals say it is the best beach in all of Bocas and I agree. The water is smooth due to the out-lying reef. You can fish or snorkel or just enjoy a beech walk.
There are many stories and I don't know which are true and which are not. Some say Polo sold the beach with the right to stay there until he dies, and that he is worth over a million dollars. Maybe - I'm sure money means little and that it is the lifestyle he relishes.
He gathers rain water for drinking and can live off the land and sea. He and I hit it off and we talked for over a half hour.
翻译:此主题中有一些错误信息。首先,要到达 Polo 海滩,请走 414 号别墅后的第二条小径。您会看到小径旁的一棵树上喷涂着“POLO”。您需要越过小径前面的土丘(没什么大不了的 - 尤其是在左侧的一棵树旁)。不要走第一条小径 - 这条小径并不容易,而且有禁止擅自闯入的标志。
沿着小径走 - 很容易到达一堵白墙。踩在右侧的立足点上绕行。继续沿着小径走到海滩,然后继续前往 Polo 的房子(有些人会说是小屋)。总步行距离略少于半英里。
Polo 目前大约 80 岁,从 17 岁起就住在那里。他每天都喝酒,所以下午晚些时候他可能会有点醉。他以 2 美元的价格出售冰镇啤酒、CoCo-Loco(小心——一杯啤酒可以供两人享用),还有龙虾,通常会在烧烤架上烤鱼,直到下午三点左右。
海滩很棒——当地人说这是博卡斯最好的海滩,我也同意。由于有外礁,海水很平静。您可以钓鱼或浮潜,或者只是享受海滩漫步。
有很多故事,我不知道哪些是真的,哪些是假的。有人说 Polo 卖掉了海滩,并获得了在那里居住直至死亡的权利,而且他的身价超过一百万美元。也许吧——我相信钱并不重要,这是他喜欢的生活方式。
他收集雨水饮用,可以靠陆地和海洋为生。他和我一拍即合,我们聊了半个多小时。
