Do you think that the “sunken Jesus” might have been baptized by that Arizona priest who used the wrong word? Perhaps his Catholicism was revoked by Rome.

Ha, ha, ha!

The water in the bay was absolutely crystal clear, we could even see the feet of Jesus.

From below as he walked across it?

The algae seems to come up in the afternoon, so try morning,

Only part of Playa la Ropa is blue flag, a bit less than half of it.

My wife and I just returned from a swim at the west end of La Ropa by the rocks. Been swimming there for last 10 years, an always found the water to be crystal clear and delightful....today not so much. Water had abundant green bubbles and a equally green tint. Plus, alot of floating plastic....more than usual. Bummed us out...thought La Ropa is a politically designated "Blue Beach"! WTF?

This has been commented on several times in the past month or so. The green water is algae. This is the time of year when cooler water from the deep surfaces along our coast, and the algae from the deep reproduces rapidly with the increased sunlight at the surface. Sometimes it develops into the phenomenon known as red tide, though there's been no evidence of that occurring yet. Only the rapid reproduction of algae.

The plastic is what humans have done to the oceans everywhere, and that's literally a crying shame.
