This is an journey that so exceeded my expectations, I have to current it once more. The wilderness and islands alongside Sea of Cortex is among the most undiscovered and thrilling locations on the planet with so many wonders to expertise. I am so glad I discovered Purple Sustainable Travel, a brand new tour operator right here that delivers what they promise.

We gathered in Los Cabos for some pre-trip enjoyable. Our good mini-group of 16 was then transferred north to La Paz. Serene, clear, protected and pleasant, I discovered it the alternative of Cabo. We spent 2 nights in a firstclass lodge and loved the vigorous waterfront.

“Enjoyable Baja Excursions” collected us for a day journey to Espiritu Santo Island, a UNESCO Biosphere. Our speedboats carried us 3 hours out with dolphins and porpoises in tow. We anchored at a colony of 600 sea lions and donned moist fits. It was an exhilarating and surreal expertise to snorkel amongst them! For two hours we had been surrounded by a cacophony of barking, honking and belching sea lions. It was startling when the huge males swam round. I liked the infants. In a quiet cove, they had been as playful and curious as puppies.

We sailed on to La Partida Island for seashore time in crystal clear waters 50 shades of inexperienced. After a grilled seafood lunch, we loved paddle boarding and sea kayaking. Later we sailed to a colony of sea birds to photograph hundreds of frigates and cormorants with their hatching chicks.

On the 4th day, we drove 4 hours to fabulous Magdalena Bay for the real journey to start. Breakfast was huevos rancheros at an genuine ranch. The desert drive ended on the Pacific Ocean the place we boarded boats for a Whale Safari. These waters are teeming with marine life and March is the month to witness the migration of gray whales that come right here to breed and calve. Our movie could not seize the magnificence of all our shut up encounters.
