Southern Baja
"Just returned from my trip to La Paz and I will have to say it was fantastic! Our guide Miguel is even better than what we expected and the other staff members who cooked and worked hard to make us comfortable were a very friendly and fun loving group. I recommend this trip to anyone who loves to kayak, live in a bathing suit, snorkel, eat tremendous food and return home completely satisfied.

What is a quick getaway?

Our quick getaways are 2-5 day trips (not including your travel days to and from Baja) ranging in price from $250-$725 with limited inclusions. They are skiff-supported, budget minded sea kayaking and whale watching base camp trips ideal for families with small children and/or folks limited on time and/or first time campers or paddlers and/or folks wanting to combine a sea kayaking or whale watching trip with visiting other areas of Baja. Skiffs (30 foot motorized boats) are available at our quick getaway base camps equipped with large coolers full with ice facilitating cold drinks and fresh food throughout your trip. The skiffs are also useful as support vehicles for tired paddlers, whale watching outings and transportation to snorkeling hot spots otherwise not accessible by kayaks.
