Twice a year we offer a trip that covers all of Baja California. In the fall, our adventure begins in Puerto Peñasco and ends in San Jose de Los Cabos. In the spring, we start in San Jose del Cabo and finish in Puerto Peñasco.
Experience what very few people have. A journey where there are no roads, very few people and almost no boats. The stars at night are so close that you can reach out and are surprised that you cannot touch them. At night you hear something splashing. It could be anything. Dolphins, marlin, a schools of bonitos? Then you hear the huge sound of blowing and water spouting. It's a whale! You can't see him but he sounds big. At a distance you hear the sea lions and pelicans. What a splended way to end a magnificant day.
During the day we move from one island to the next , diving 3 to 4 times daily. If you wish to hike the remote islands during surface intervals, there is always a dingy available to take you to shore. Our kayaks are also always available for a serene cruise around the islands.
Exploring one island to the next is a magical experience. One that will linger in your memory for years and years to come. The Sea of Cortez remains a secret oasis where the desert meets the sea.
ACTIVITIES: Diving, hiking, kayaking, snorkeling and several land excursions exploring small towns and missions.
THINGS TO SEE: Jacques Cousteau and John Stienbeck saw the magic that the Sea of Cortez has to offer. Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez the worlds aquarium. John Stienbeck wrote "The Log of the Sea of Cortez" a journey through a remote and beautiful corner of the world, a diary filled with the daily excitements and triumphs of skillful and energetic men. It is also an invitation to see the world anew from a fresh vantage point and perhaps with a broader and more understanding spirit.
The bio-diversity between the Northern and Southern Sea of Cortez is incredible. Diving the entire Baja is spectacular. The sea life we witness on the surface from the boat, dingys or snorkling is fantastic.
Dolphins, sealions, pilot, humpback, blue, fin, sei, orca and sperm whales. Flying mantas, blue and brown footed boobies, cormorants, frigatebirds and the endemic yellow footed gulls.
