Day trip
La Paz: waterfront evenings and Sea of Cortez adventures
Make room for another side of Baja: the La Paz malecón, beautiful bays and boat outings into the Sea of Cortez. Come for a full day or stay overnight to enjoy the waterfront after the excursions return.
Day trip
Cabo Pulmo: make a day of the reef
Head up the East Cape for guided snorkelling or diving in Cabo Pulmo National Park. Reef scenery and marine life make this a memorable change of pace from the resort coast.
Day trip
Todos Santos: art, local flavours and a Pacific day out
Follow the Pacific coast to a town of galleries, colourful streets and places to linger over lunch. Todos Santos is an easy way to add local exploring to a Cabo holiday.
Day trip
Cerritos: catch a wave and enjoy the Pacific
Try a surf lesson, watch the waves and settle into the laid-back scene around Cerritos. Near Pescadero and Todos Santos, it makes a fun Pacific-side outing from Cabo.
Long stay
Los Barriles: fishing, wind sports and East Cape days
Spend a day—or a few—in Los Barriles for East Cape fishing, winter wind sports and an easygoing beach-town atmosphere. It is a lovely base for travellers who want more time by the Sea of Cortez.
