Kayaking and camping on Espiritu Santo Island allow us the opportunity to 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. And of course there's always the choice of relaxing on the beach, soaking with a good book in the warm Baja sun.

Meals are a combination of the best of American and Mexican traditions prepared using local fresh ingredients. Barbecued chicken, fresh fish Vera Cruz style, grilled steak tacos accompanied by guacamole and a variety of Mexican salsas, plus fresh soups and salads are just a few examples of our tasty menus. The skiffs allow us to bring large blocks of ice to store fresh produce and indulge in luxuries such as cold sodas, juice and beer. Each evening we serve a cocktail and appetizer for "happy hour" so you can enjoy the spectacular Baja sunset while sipping an ice cold Margarita! Special diets are easily accommodated due to the variety of foods we are able to store with a skiff supported trip.

"Just a quick email to tell you how much we enjoyed our camping and all the activities that Miguel and his crew provided for us. Every one of the crew at Espiritu Island was wonderful. We were first time campers and loved every minute. The food was outstanding and the weather was quite beautiful. We hiked to some of the most beautiful spots we have ever seen!! We had some rough seas and windy weather on the boat ride out to the island, but our captain was great and made the trip as safe as possible. He pulled into a small port and waited out the winds and tide and we were able to make a cautious, but safe trip to the island. Everyone at the hotel was wonderful and very considerate of our questions. It was also immaculately clean. Thank you again, for a wonderful vacation." --Mary and Bob Chase, February 2007
