No, do not write about the time unit. Segunda is here the second class on intercity buses. It is slightly cheaper (like 25%) then primera (1st class) but the segunda buses are slower, non a/c and the buses stop anywhere for everybody. Well, sometimes in the Mexican outback you have no choice because primera buses go only at night and you want to enjoy daylight scenery.
I took segunda bus from Puerto Vallarta along the coast to San Patricio Melaque. It cost me 150 pesos. Calculating your trip across Mexico at the moment you can approximate travel cost using the rate: 1 km= 1 peso…
It took me 5 hours to reach San Patricio… Locals do not care about [San Patricio[ they use now only the name Melaque now.
Melaque and the sister town of Barra de Navidad are both located on the wonderful bay.
I took me an hour to walk along the wide sandy beach to get to Barra. There is the monument of Miguel Legazpi – famous sailor who sailed from here in 1564 across the Pacific to colonize the Philippines… Lovely, peaceful place…
Coming back to Melaque I enjoyed another wonderful sunset.
