Porto Mari, a short hike around Seru Mateu (the hill Mattheo)

On April the first, we started a short hike along the Seru Mateu. We parked at the parking of the beach and restaurant of Porto Mari.
The first path we took ended in bushes. The path was clearly a wild pig route, since the path was full of their droppings.

 A beautiful and quite trail. Easy too!
Once at the end, there is a wide trail to Playa Hunku.


After going back and trying again, we found the trail we remembered well. It was my first try (with a new hip) for a real hike, so we did not overdo it.
In the distance we could hear the voices of the Hiking Curaçao group that did the long hike (Birdwatch tower, ruins, old wells, and up the Seru Mateu)


These strange balls are all over the trees, no bird-nests ;-)
