PrintSea Kayaking the Baja Coast of Mexico - Overview
Paddle Baja, Mexico’s most remote and scenic coastline. Known as the “Mexican Galápagos,” these warm turquoise waters are one of the richest marine environments in the world. Your days will be spent paddling, snorkeling, hiking and exploring the stunning wild islands and coastal areas of Baja, Mexico. Nights are punctuated by magnificent sunsets and happy hour, "Baja-style". A motorized support skiff accompanies all our O.A.R.S. sea kayaking trips, carrying your gear and supplies thus leaving your sea kayak light and responsive. This is our most popular O.A.R.S. adventure trip among experienced kayakers.

“The destination was everything we had imagined and more. Secondly we enjoyed the service of the local guide (Carlos) and his staff of Mar y Adventures. We were impessed by their personability, their knowledge of the area, their pace of traveling from one place to another, and their culinary ability and menu selection. We truly appreciated their ablity to make the overall trip one of the most memorable travel experiences we have had. Thirdly, we enjoyed the group size and the people in our group.
Thank you for a wonderful trip.”
