Bahia de los Angeles, Mexico
This bay and the little town are considered the "Marine Oasis of Baja California" due to the abundant aquatic life. This lovely area is also one of the finest boating areas in the Baja area. Perfect for kayaking and small boat excursions and ventures ashore such as hikes to Punta La Gringa, visits to the nature museum, and even possible swims with whale sharks. This is also a great chance to take guided walks and hikes or be on your own. This area is also known as one of the few places in Baja where the famed, and huge, leatherback sea turtle can be spotted.

This tight and protected area is known to local fishermen and yachties as one of the most protected and scenic areas in the Northern Sea of Cortez. We will have all day to enjoy this yachter's paradise. All activities are on for today, and perhaps a chance for a campfire before dinner? Meals included: breakfast, lunch, dinner ... Read More

This area is known as the Canal de Salsipuedes, but due to its extreme depths it is also known to mariners as "the Trench". It is in this trench that large groups of sperm whales feed on Humboldt squid, meaning you'll have an excellent chance to observe the mighty toothed whales.
