The islands of the Sea of Cortez contain striking natural beauty in a
dramatic setting formed by rugged islands with high cliffs and sandy
beaches, which contrast with the brilliant reflection from the desert
and the surrounding turquoise waters. The area is a UNESCO World
Heritage Site and offers the perfect blend of Baja kayaking, hiking and
snorkeling. Abundant wildlife, massive whales, sunny weather and warm,
crystalline waters make the Sea of Cortez in Loreto Bay National Marine
Park one of the best winter sea kayaking and whale watching destinations
in North America. NOTE: First and last days for any Baja tour are
arrival and departure days.
