Description

12-Day Sea Kayaking Expedition from Loreto to La Paz

Experience one of the most remote and breathtaking stretches of Baja California Sur on this 10-day sea kayaking expedition from Loreto to La Paz. Paddle along the dramatic Sierra de la Giganta, where towering cliffs plunge into the turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez, and wild beaches offer a new landing and a new adventure each day.

Over the course of the journey, you’ll camp under the stars, snorkel in pristine waters, explore hidden trails, and spot marine wildlife. The snorkeling spots are impressive, and dolphin watching is practically guaranteed. We're sure to see whales, dolphins, turtles, and manta rays, and we'll be able to fish and catch our own food. Most days end with a relaxing Happy Hour on the beach and freshly prepared meals, often made with fish caught right from the kayak.

A mid-trip resupply keeps your boat light while maintaining the spirit of expedition. With very few fishing villages along the way, this route offers a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the solitude and natural beauty of Baja’s coastline, without roads, crowds, or distractions.

Whether you're drawn by the wildlife, the wild landscapes, or the challenge of a true expedition, this is a journey that connects you deeply to the rhythms of the sea and the simplicity of life on the water. The Loreto-La Paz expedition is an opportunity to regain a sense of adventure and experience an expedition like no other.

Itinerary - Loreto - La Paz Expedition

DAY 0 On this day, you will check in at the hotel. You will have the day to enjoy the city of Loreto. In the evening, you will meet your guide(s) in the hotel lobby at 7:00 PM to clarify any questions and prepare for the next day

DAY 1 After breakfast at the hotel, we will pick you up and take you to the starting point of the trip at Playa Ligüí. There, we will prepare the kayaks and organize the equipment and food. After a light lunch and some cold drinks to recharge energy, we will begin our journey and paddle until we reach the first beach, where we will set up camp and enjoy a dinner as the sun sets.

DAY 2-4 During these days, we will explore the beautiful coast of the Sea of Cortez by kayak. Each paddle will take us to a new camp on a different beach, where we will have the chance to enjoy hot springs and take hikes through hidden landscapes. Each day will present a new opportunity to snorkel and discover the marine life that inhabits these waters. At the end of each day, we will gather to enjoy our famous Happy Hour.

DAY 5 Midway through the trip, the much-anticipated resupply will arrive. We will take a well-deserved break with cold drinks, recharging for the next part of the trip. This day, we will have to organize again to distribute and pack the food in the kayaks. After paddling, we will end the day with a surprise dinner freshly brought from La Paz.

DAY 6-9 During these days, we will follow our infallible adventure recipe: we begin with breakfast while enjoying the sunrise, then we pack up camp and prepare to paddle many kilometers along the coast, which will allow us to see pristine and wild landscapes, where it will just be us, the local wildlife, and some fishing communities. Hikes, nighttime ghost stories, and opportunities to fish and enjoy a fresh dinner will be part of the daily routine.

DAY 10 The last day of the expedition will take us to our final paddle, which will culminate with a delicious lunch and cold drinks to celebrate. We will load the gear onto the trailer and begin the journey back to La Paz, where we will finally be able to shower at the hotel. In the evening, we will gather for one last dinner with the group and our guides to share all the stories and say goodbye properly with a toast.

LAST DAY Breakfast at the hotel. See you on your next adventure.

What makes the coastline between Loreto and La Paz unique?

The coastline between Loreto and La Paz is a stretch of over 160 km of remote beaches, hidden bays, and corners that can only be accessed by sea. This makes this coastline one of the most bio diverse and healthiest in the region.

Throughout the entire coastline, on one side we have the presence of the Sierra la Giganta, which accompanies us with its cliffs, serving as a refuge for hundreds of birds, reptiles, and mammals. On the other side, the Gulf of California reveals its reefs, where thousands of fish take shelter from the open sea.

The small villages along this route add a cultural element to the region with the fishing culture characteristic of the area and its culinary preparations using fresh ingredients from the sea in which they live.

This pristine and untamed coastline is a bastion of the region's biodiversity.

What kind of fauna might we observe?

You will be able to observe a wide variety of wildlife, such as: California sea lions, tropical fish, endemic ring-tailed cat (Babisuri), whales (seasonal), dolphins, manta rays, pelicans, blue-footed boobies, ospreys, frigate birds, herons, and egrets.
