Sea Kayaking the Baja Coast

Overview

Paddle Baja’s most remote and scenic coastline. Known as the “Mexican Galápagos,” its 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 or coastal areas. Nights are punctuated by magnificent sunsets and happy hour, Baja-style. A motorized support skiff accompanies all trips carrying your gear and supplies, leaving your kayak light and responsive. This is our most popular trip among experienced kayakers.
