Espíritu Santo island is a national park and World Heritage Site, with white sand coves, red cliffs and one of the best-known sea lion colonies in the Sea of Cortez. On this private catamaran charter you explore it at an easy pace without sharing the boat.
What you do
- Sail from La Paz to the west-coast coves, such as Ensenada Grande or El Candelero.
- Snorkel rocky reefs and, sea permitting, near the Los Islotes sea lion colony, always following park rules.
- Paddle kayaks and paddleboards in turquoise water.
- Relax at a beach setup with table, chairs and umbrella for lunch by the sea.
Who it is for
Families, couples and groups of up to eight who want comfort and privacy, or anyone who would like to try a day on a catamaran before booking a sailing week. The captain and guide are bilingual.
What to bring
Swimwear, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, a hat and a sweatshirt for the ride back. Access to the national park requires a wristband, which is paid separately.
Best time
All year round. October to May has ideal weather; in winter the north wind may force a change of route. In summer the water is warmer and visibility is better, which makes it the best season for snorkeling.
