Desert meets sea.Baja at its purest.

At the tip of the peninsula, Baja California Sur brings together landscapes that feel like another world: turquoise waters, white-sand beaches and a desert that reaches the shore.

It is an invitation to slow down, explore and connect with nature. These are three of the places that make the Sea of Cortez so special.

THE BEAUTY OF BAJA

Espíritu Santo Island

Hidden beaches, striking rock formations and marine life that surprises you.

Espíritu Santo is one of the Sea of Cortez’s great natural treasures. Its clear-water bays and landscapes of rock and desert offer a setting to explore and enjoy at your own pace.

The sea lion colony is one of its greatest highlights: an encounter with sea lions in their natural habitat that becomes one of the island’s most memorable experiences.
