Don't miss the remote and scenic mountains of lower Baja California known as the Sierra de la Laguna depicted by deep boulder-filled canyons dotted with palms, hot springs and cool mountain streams. These dramatic canyons create the perfect setting for hiking and mountain biking. Your camping accommodation is set under the shade of large mango and avocado trees in the small orchard of Huerta los Mangos. The other part of your trip is spent kayaking and camping on Espiritu Santo Island where you can explore beautiful white sand beaches, canyons adorned with hanging fig trees, boulder up arroyos, and snorkel with friendly sea lions and tropical fish. Our flexible itinerary facilitates a variety of activities for a variety of interests from hiking to paddling to snorkeling and fishing. Motorized support skiffs provide a safe and luxurious sea kayaking excursion. Besides exploring the many hidden coves by kayak, other guided activities from our base camp include skiff excursions to nearby snorkeling "hot spots" including a sea lion rookery where we join these graceful creatures, swimming alongside them while enjoying their playful and curious nature first hand.
