Embark on an unforgettable adventure to Espíritu Santo Island, a natural gem off the coasts of La Paz, Baja California Sur.
With unmatched marine life diversity, this experience offers you the opportunity to observe and interact with sea lions in their natural habitat and enjoy the unique beauty of this protected island.
Exploring La Isla Espíritu Santo unveils a tapestry of natural wonders and cultural treasures. As travelers traverse its rugged terrain and hidden coves, they encounter a sanctuary of solitude and serenity, where the rhythms of nature set the pace.
Alongside its natural splendor,

This six-hour adventure begins with hotel pickup (if you're in the central area of La Paz) and transfer to our office for check-in at 10:30 AM. We then walk to the dock to board our 35-foot boats, equipped with coolers and a restroom. Enjoy snorkeling with sea lions, followed by coral reef snorkeling at Espíritu Santo Island. Relax in the crystal-clear waters and enjoy a lunch of local ceviche and snacks. We conclude with a visit to Balandra Beach, the most beautiful beach in Mexico, to take photos at the iconic mushroom-shaped rock. During the boat ride, you might spot dolphins, whales, whale sharks, turtles, and marine birds.

Wonderful experience!!

Amazing landscape! It’s a great tour, you can go with friend or alone because the guide is super friendly and explains so good to fish, swim and snorkel. Help you with the equipment and the instructions to have a fun day in the boat and in the sea. We fished a big, big fish and it was…wow! Can get photos super cute and enjoy the sunset.

Aamazing, Unforgettable Experience!

This was a wonderful experience! Our guide and our captain were great! We saw lots of dolphins, swam with sealions, saw and learned about protected beaches, saw a Blue-footed Booby, and had lunch under canopies on Espiritu Santo. It was unforgettable. We took so many pictures to share with our family and friends. Thanks for such good memories.

Take this tour even with young ones

We showed up at the meeting place and it turned out to be the wrong area. Thankfully our crew did everything we needed to make it right. Once on the boat Hazel, Alan and our captain Juan did everything they could to take care of us. The islands were spectacular. The beaches were unbelievably beautiful. We snorkeled some areas that rivaled Cabo Pulmo and our lunch was very good. We would definitely do this trip again. What a great day
